Confederate infantry with bowie knives?
« on: 30 November 2017, 11:27:23 AM »
I was wondering if anyone made any 28mm confederate infantry wielding/charging with bowie knives? Thought they could make a nice characterful addition to the fairly ubiquitous 'charging with levelled bayonet' type poses...
Failing that... any good thoughts on starting points for conversions?

Where did you get that plaid paint? I want some! Do they have tartan paint too?
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

I think Redoubt included one or two figures in their Ragged Rebs Regiment(s).

I definitely remember painting them.

Unsure whether you could buy them separately...but no harm in asking

Look at different ranges Texan regiment figures, as it was Texan & other western units that would have more commonly carried them.

Khmorg, looks like we need to do a pack of Bowie welding Confederates after you complete our winter project!
