More of Buford's Boys


Again, painting time has been eroded by real life, lucky I have a number of 'nearly finished' figures to concentrate upon. This command stand from the Union Cavalry - pretty much straight out of the box - the only change was that the flag pole was removed and replaced with a thinner length of wire, with a small finial sculpted on top. The guidon itself is made from thin metal cut from an old tube of paint.

I also painted up a small backdrop - although I need to adjust the photo options - it doesn't look quite right yet. I need to finish off two more bases then the first unit will be ready to give Heth a 'boot' up the backside ;)
