This seemd to be the right place to post these, apologies if I got that wrong.

Some pictures of my American Civil War collection:





A Union Cavalry brigade, this is the Michigan brigade, Custer's Wolverines.



 

Some Confederate Infantry, figures are a mix of Foundry, Redoubt, Dixon and First Corps.







Hope you like them.

Well done! Always wanted to do a proper ACW diorama,myself.  You've given me some ideas.  I like the fact that the figures look like a group of individuals, rather than a row of clones, which, unfortunately, many ranges limit you to doing, due to a lack of variety in their poses or heads.

Cheers!

 There needs to be a few red neckerchiefs that they wore to copy Custer..............

I was just experimenting with constructing some typical ACW era 3-rail fencing in 28mm for a diorama I have in mind.  What a job! It works, but it's very labour intensive.  You can see why there was such a slaughter when Pickett's Division hit the fence lining the Emmitsburg Road at Gettysburg.  You can't take the rails down without an axe or without knocking down the posts, with a lot of effort.  You would have to climb over, making yourself a nice, slow target.
