Confederate Infantry Casualties and Generals

Carl's 10 Confederate regiments will have 27 casualties scattered amongst the stands. These figures were a lot of fun to paint!

He will also have ten Confederate generals to command his troops. 

Tomorrow I will start basing up all the line infantry regiments!

50 Shades of ... Butternut

Another month, another commission. These 198 Rebel infantry are the start of a Confederate army for Carl.

The flags are from Maverick Models and are printed on cloth. I gave them a PVA glue wash. Once they are dry, I will try cutting them.

These figures are all 15mm Blue Moon, and they are as full of character as I remember! Carl's instructions were to make them ragged and bright.

Carl is undecided yet on which size base to use, 25mm or 30mm squares.

 

Mosaic Expansion

Another commission is finished! Glenn Drover hired me to paint up some tokens for his board game expansion, "Mosaic: Wars & Disasters." This is the third set of pieces I have painted for Mosaic, and I have yet to play the game!

The new expansion adds an amphitheatre town, and it was great fun to paint a Greek style outdoor theatre.

Another new town type is the garrison town. This is a beautiful fortress sculpt.

The expansion adds new naval units. I love the look of these triremes!

Finally, there are three new wonders: the Statur of Zeus, the Mausoleum at Halicarnassus, and the Circus Maximus. These were challenging to paint, as the first two are just pretty much .... white. Hopefully I gave them that little extra punch that will make them look great on the game board.

Now I will be moving on to another commission, a sprawling combination of periods and scales for a fellow in Manhattan!

28mm French Cuirassiers

As a quick palette cleanser, I spent a couple of days painting up some random primed figures from my bench. These four Foundry cuirassiers were just the thing!
