ACW Project 5th Update


It was time to add the flags to my previously painted units. I only use one flag per Regiment/Brigade. I got the flags from:
The Wargame Vault

A full unit can be 2 stands to 4 stands. [a stand = 1 base]
I only use flags for the lead stand.

I printed the flags on to adhesive paper and saved the hassle of using glue. It took me a bit of time to get the fit right but I got it down now.

Here is an example of the Union:
100_8290

Here is an example of the Confederate:
100_8293

Also here is a scale comparison:
100_8296

Will post more as I paint them.

Dirt Roads: flexible resin.

Rail fences: Metal
100_8288

Snake Fences: Metal
100_8289

Overall these pics do not do the Buildings any justice [add it up to my failing as a photographer]
These minis are not cheap but are not overly expensive. The detail is amazing and as I really wanted the Gettysburg Seminary [It will be part of my 1st day battles of Gettysburg]
The service was good with no hassles. For international buyers the quoted postage cost is for overland NOT air mail. You will need to pay extra.
but its not much more. so its all good. I am rather nervous about painting these buildings I have never used Resin terrain before and its all quite new. they did provide me with an in depth painting guide. The good thing about ACW buildings is the patchier the painting the better, [eg weathered]
I'll post pics once I get them started.

Pirate Goblins Box Set ~ at Indiegogo

 

French designer who has decided to use indiegogo as Kickstarter is not available in Europe yet.

http://www.indiegogo.com/pirate-goblins?c=home

These Gobbos would be great for the Cutlass game or even Mordheim.
and at $30USD for the first 5 [the additional 6th gobbo is added once they reach the target] which also includes worldwide postage is a BARGAIN!!!!
only thing you need to beware is that payment is upfront. its not like kickstarter where the money is taken once the project is funded. This one the money is taken when you pledge your level. so this particular project is more of a pre-order but we are hoping we will get to see more of these awesome pirate goblins.

ACW Project 4th Update


Here is the start of the Confederate Army:
100_8243
Currently painting up some Confederate Artillery, and Cavalry. Will update once these are done. Been asked to show how I paint up 6mm miniatures so once the Cavalry and artillery are done I’ll do a stage by stage progress on the next Confederate Infantry I do.

ACW Project 3rd Update

 

Well I finished my Union Napoleon Cannons and also added in some Tokens.

Napoleon Cannons:100_8220

K.I.A Tokens:
100_8222

I have made them rather bright so they stand out more on the battlefield.
I tried them darker but they just didn't "pop" or "Stand out" so I made them brighter and you can see quite easy that these have dead troopers.
Will be adding a whole heap more of these tokens once I get more casualties. Adler Miniatures don't have any mounted Casualties anyone know where I could find some 6mm versions?
I have started painting up the first of the Confederate units, should have it done tonight, also undercoated 6 Napoleon cannons, and a unit of Confederate Cavalry.
Will post more pics once these have been done.

Cheers

Will post more pics soon.
