Strong Vincent, hero of little round top
On the second day of Gettysburg Strong Vincent gave his life for the Union, Gettysburg was never really a draw for me until recently! what changed I am not really sure. I started to read bits and pieces about the Iron Brigade and the 20th Maine, Chamberlain I knew from watching the feature film Gettysburg but Strong Vincent I didn't really know about. So his bushy sideburns and riding crop were added to a Dixon Mini and Strong was born.
I hope to do a few more commands soon but we shall see what time constraints allow. So hopefully he looks the part, a bit of greenstuff and lead rod he was good to go.
