Airfix ACW Wargaming - Confederate infantry

The  4 confederate regiments aimed for are now  finished. Is 80 really enough ?
The 3rd Texas Infantry
The 28th Regiment, North Carolina
20th Reg. Texas Volunteers. The officer got a head swop.
3rd South Virginians
The flag of the 3rd South Virginians came  with a Batch of  unpainted Confederates (thanks Dean :-)) and was already painted and I didn´t have the heart to replace it.

    80 would never be enough! You have the makings of a fine brigade here. What you really need now is a mounted brigadier and perhaps a battery of guns for support...then onto the next brigade!

    Love your style, Paul. Your work has inspired mine for years, and it still does.
    I suppose that the (unnatural) green bases are a reference to the Britain figures ? I only had a few of them, indians and ACW soldiers, but I loved them a lot.

      Thanks Phil. Yep..the bases are a reference to the Britians green bases. I think, as Britians was probably one of the first to mass produce toy soldiers and they used the green base colour, the mid green became a Standard for basing in "old School" style.

    It may be unnatural but that shade of green really makes the figures stand out.
