The 146th New York Volunteer Infantry, I'm slowly adding to my Union forces and what better addition than some zouaves!
Garrards Tigers also went by the name of Halleck's infantry after New York born General Henry Halleck, they fought at Fredericksburg, Gettysburg, and Cold Harbour.
I wanted a unit with movement so I converted roughly half of them, I threw in a few Kepi's for luck! I did have some laying around so it made sense. They look the part so I'm more than happy with the end results.
lovely looking unit,figures,painting and basing....marvelous work!
ReplyDeleteThanks Phil your comments are very much appreciated. They have took a while to do but the finished effect seems to speak for itself. Next up another Union regiment something not quite as colourful but all the same a welcome addition.
ReplyDeleteThey look splendid, beautiful job!
ReplyDeleteThank you for the kind words, they took a while to do but my next regiment up is taking even longer. The Garibaldi Guard is going to be a full 24 conversions, every single one. I'm about half way there with head swaps and a fair amount of greenstuff
ReplyDeleteGosh! I do admire the painting done on these. BB
ReplyDeleteThanks BB between the blue and the yellow facings they came out rather well. I still have ACW stuff planned its just finding the time
