American Civil War - Union Army

Finally got a set of models finished. You don't know how much of an impact going from about 10 hours a week for hobby time to an hour a week - under pressure - really has, when one has been used to cranking through projects and models at a decent rate.

So - at last - got a brigade finished. This is Union for the ACW game in Dec and forms the basis of my own regiments. Still got plenty to finish before the day (casualties, terrain, fences, as many other units as I can crank out) but at least the base of my stuff is done.

Need to tidy up and finish off some Confederacy too, but that'll come in time.

Of course, the blazing BLAZING sun yesterday meant that most of my hastily snapped photos weren't quite useable, so just the single shot.

  1. Nice troops! Yes it's tough when you have to grab whatever bits and bobs of time you can instead of having decent regular amounts, me I'm little and often now as I don't get big chunks of time.

    1. Yeah cheers Iain. Its odd with painting - when I had all the time to do it, I could never be bothered to. Now I've gotten the habit of a bit every day........I don't have the time! Started making a small 20 minutes late night now, to be able to get things done for the upcoming ACW game.

      Think next year might have to be smaller projects and a bit of a rethink, at least for a while!
