Plantation Workers and ACW Reinforcements.

Having been shamed by the last weeks bridge I started hunt a little deeper in the cupboard of shame and figured over the coming months I would work my way through this excess metal and resin completing some of those items which were brought for a purpose, but got neglected when something shiny came along.
First up 8 Confederate Infantry perfect for an extra section in SP2, why they never made it on to the paint table in the first place who knows.... I think it was due to the fact that I tend to paint in batches of no more than 16 figures and these were the excess?




They will bolster the rebel forces for when we restart the ACW campaign which has stalled in recent months. On a similar theme next out of the cupboard were the following plantation workers.


Redoubt Enterprises - Field hands - perfect to flesh out the Haiti table as Coffee Pickers or for the Union to free. Not the best sculpts compared to some of the others on the market, one of these hard working fellows if from the Perry's, but Redoubt do  create those oddities that can complete a range.




Next up a couple ot items which have been in the cupboard for at least 4 years....

  2. Really nice work on all these. It feels good to get out the lingering projects and put on the last few bits to get them done.
