28mm ACW Aides de Camp

The fellows and I had a trial game of "Pickett's Charge" planned for this weekend, but the NCAA tournament has forced us to reschedule.

In anticipation of the game, I painted up eight more aides de camp and based them on Litko's pill shaped bases.  These are really generals, as their cuff braid and button placement indicates.  I'm hoping someone (looking at you, Stephen Huckaby) starts making some mounted aides de camp figures.

I think these are all from Sash and Saber, and the poses are very nice.

Giant Commission -- Prussian Line Infantry

I have spent March finishing a big chunk of Glenn's Prussian army.  He will have 288 line infantry, 288 landwehr, and 36 jager.  These are the 288 line, all 12 Prussian regiments as they appeared from 1812-5.  Each regiment has two bases of musketeers, one of fusiliers, and one of grenadiers.

I have already started on the landwher.  Hopefully they will not take another four weeks!
