Completed Green Mountain Boys
« on: 11 August 2017, 04:06:13 PM »
Here is the second, completely finished, AWI Unit to be presented.
Seth Warner's Green Mountain Boys, as they appeared at Bennington and saved the day.
Figures are a mixture, with plenty of Eureka and probably some Perry/Foundry. Painted by John Bryant.
The main Green flag is by Flag Dude. The other flag is from Flags of War.
I liked it and added it as a second flag, since I already had a second flagbearer.
I did all the ground work and that takes the most time. I've traveled around Upstate NY a lot and I'm pretty sure this is what the field it would look like at the time of the battle. I spent the better part of the day working on this
Hope it turned out OK.

Excellent, as always.
And the glorious general led the advance
With a glorious swish of his sword and his lance
And a glorious clank of his tin-plated pants. - Dr. Seuss

+1.

As an afterthought I think you need to push it to the next level. I expect season-appropriate insects buzzing around your next set of bases. 1 inch fishing lines with a small blob of black paint on one end maybe?

Excellent work! And I love the ground cover and grasses, I think it gives the unit a sense of place and time.  :)
