American Civil War: Confederates (2)

It's been the long Thanksgiving weekend here in Wisconsin and I've cracked on apace with the Sharp Practice American Civil War collection. Along with assembling two boxes of Perry Miniatures cavalry, cleaning up some dismounted cavalry castings and building terrain (more of that in another post) I also managed to crack on with the Confederate infantry.

Sixteen more riflemen join the collection and are joined by a officer to start issuing some order to the ranks.

Chum Seth donated a Wargames Foundry Darkest Africa explorer to the collection and I painted him as a man of substance in a uniform of fine cloth.

Here are a few individual shots of the rank and file.

There are only twelve more figures left from the Perry American Civil War Confederate infantry box and all have some paint on them. I plan to get a dozen dismounted Confederate cavalry done next then I'll make a start on the mounted contingent for both sides.

I reckon there shall be enough painted for a game over the Christmas break.
