Title: Union = Hold the line (draft version)
Post by: BlindFool on July 23, 2013, 07:18:58 AM

Dear All
The attached below is a little something different and not your usual well polished stands of figures - I've got a long way to go on that front but I'm happy with the look - I decided to group together several figures to give a sense of the chaos to a familiar subject.

The figures are 1st Corps along with a Redoubt and Perry.

I painted 26 figures in total portraying the usual Union charge/advancing and included a series of wounded and hit characters to illustrate a regiment on the receiving end of a volley from the defenders.

The figures will be based in fours.

I am now lucky enough to be in a position when I can devote my time to working on my vast ACW lead mountain.

These look great and show a range of movement and action that's missing from most normal units of miniatures.

Looking forward to seeing the completed work.
