This time we go back to the American Civil War. It all started with a base I bought at the FIGZ meeting in 2012. I did that only because I had an idea how to make a little vignette with it. A last stand of some Confederate soldiers.
In the first picture you can see the result of it. But let's do this step by step. The terrain is from Wolf Terrain a Danish firm who made this for 15 mm figures. When I told them I would use for my 1/72 scale figures they wouldn't believe me. But here's the prove I ment it. It's a real nice base and it was fun to paint it.
I didn't use only figures sold as Confederate soldiers but also Union soldiers. An overview of the figures used in this vignette.
Revell 02559 Union Infantry |
Esci 223 Confederate Infantry |
Revell 02558 Confederate Infantry |
Revell 02558 Confederate Infantry |

And here are some pictures of the vignette.
