These are really nice. I wonder how they'll compare next to the other ranges out there in terms of size? Really nice!

Yes will they fit in with Perry or old Foundry ACW?

I second all the above comments.

But shouldn't the mounted officer have the field officer's double-breasted frock coat?

well officers could basically wear whatever they liked. a lot of them had privately made coats.

I have Renegade, Redoubt and some Crusader making up my collection so they may not 'fit'. They might be ok in their own unit though as I do like them!

you want to stick these guys in one unit so yeah that shouldn't be a problem

Unless there was a specific rule for this regt, I believe that field officers ALWAYS wore double-breasted coats as a matter of regulation.

Yes exactly for Major and above unless he is a captain that was just promoted and hasn't received his Brooks Brothers uniform yet from New York...

Hi Gentlemen

I am very glad you enjoy our figures: it was already great for me to plan the release and to work on the reference material for the sculptor.

I will post some comparison pictures as soon as I receive masters back from the foundry.

The work Alan Marsh made for me is one of the best I have ever seen for ACW and I hope the castings will reflect all the detaiks he made.

Cheers

Franck

Hi Franck

really appreciate that you have made these available to the general public. will you be doing more ACW specifi units? there's quite a lot of uncovered territory. for example, the Iron Brigade an Berdan's Sharp shooters. There are some who have produced these before but no quality sculpts exist in 28mm today
