Nice! Now I'm going to forget I saw it. I need to go home and paint Mexican-American mercenary stuff, not the pile of personal Sash and Saber ACW stuff that mocks me from the unpainted pile!

Yes, these are 28mm Dixons Miniatures in the main, though I have the odd 1st Corps figure, mostly guns and crew, and a few Foundry ones too, mostly command figures.

I find early morning UK time is best for multi picture uploads at Freewebs, the USA is asleep then.

Truely lovely looking! With such a reat set up I am a bit surprised you are willing to take it down a bit by using little blue plastic dustbins as markers.

These 'little blue plastic dustbins' are ammunition depletion markers I'll have you know! Union's are blue, Rebels are black ~ can't get any grey ones. Now, if the chap who sells them got some gunmetal coloured ones, I'd be well chuffed.
By the way, anyone got a source for the plastic curtain rings that Wilkinsons used to sell here in UK, I'd like some more?
