They do have some nice Hats.

Here's a closeup... correcting a bit for my overexposed photos...

As an aside, I used to highlight black with umber and have now changed to Vallejo panzer grey. It's a bit lighter and gives a nice effect.

It just gets better and better, they look superb.

A stunning army! Are the Boston Guard historically based or VSF inspired madness?

A bit of both...

A number of US cities had "Guard" militia units prior to the American Civil War. New York, I believe, still maintains a ceremonial unit called "The Old Guard of New York City."

Cool. You should have gone with light-coloured jackets like the ones in the photos, Ray.

On the other hand they do have a certain "High School Marching Band" look about them, so perhaps it's just as well that you didn't.

Those would be reserved for my "Egyptian/Altantians Empire".

Wait till you see their hats!

Another splendid unit, Ray! I really like your creativity when inventing the units. And those practical headdresses, I just think about these guys fighting in jungles ...

Quite beutiful unit!

Those blue-clad guys very beautiful!!

I am tempting to start my own greek VSF army, also clad in blues (Historically correct, with red piping for infantry) with green cavalry!

Very nice indeed Ray. I really must paint up more figures for my US forces (especially now that they have landed on Atlantis).

I want such a hat.

Ray Rivers · « **Reply #177 on:** January 29, 2010, 12:01:46 PM »

Okay,

So here is my gatling gun section:

That finishes the Americans for now.
