Some Rebel and Union Guns

 

Re-based a couple older guns and added a couple newer guns for my ACW collection to support the infantry I've doned already. First up is the rebel battery.


Artillery always looks cool on the tabletop and even more so if assembled in groups or batteries.



Painting artillery is a mixed bag as I really enjoy painting the crew, but the gun itself can be a bit annoying to clean and even paint, but does payoff when finished. The rebels really do offer one a choice to indulge yourself in variety when it comes to their apperance.


Next up are some union guns which offer a contrast to the rebels with more of a uniformity, but still some opportunity to mix colors with coats removed.


All the guns here are from Perry miniatures metals and while a pain to clean up sure do offer some fantastic posing that really gives a sense of action!



I have some more ACW on the desk as I still have a ways to go, but I think some French and Indian War stuff might get posted before that.

Thanks for viewing!

Hessian casualty markers for AWI


I always like casualty figure markers in games as I feel it adds a little extra to battlefields rather then just a lone dice so I use them if it's practical. The Perry twins really do make great casualty markers.


I needed a small break from my ACW project so decided doing some markers now was as good as a time as any.


Still trying to get used to my computers editor which is a bit limited. My old one was better so might have to get an editor program.


I've been painting a bit more so some more ACW, F&IW and TWI will be featured soon.

Thanks for viewing!
