Title: ACW Sailors?
Post by: doowopapocalypse on July 13, 2016, 04:12:14 PM
Does anyone make in 28mm sailors for the American Civil War? I've seen Redoubts, consider them a bit...unlovely, so was wondering if anyone else took a shot.

Brigade games has one pack (cunningly hidden in the Gaslight/VSF section of the website):

I am usually a bit picky but the Redoubt sailors are really good. I have the full pack including the rowboat. Excellent stuff!

Thanks for the recommendations. Traveller, could you oblige me with some painted example?

A dark, crappy picture as often but...

*EDIT*

I tweaked the picture a little so it would show the figures better… at least, that was the plan ;)

I am afraid they are still resting in the leadmountain but once they are painted they will be inferior to Calimeros nice work. The images on Redoubts page do them also justice
