My first foray into 10mm! ACW Confederates

[jdeleonardis]

First of all - I have a confession to make, and also total disclosure.  I have sinned!  I think the dead guy is Magister Militum.  For what its worth, the quality of that fig isnt as good as the standing figures!

Anyway, this was my first 'test unit' of 10mm ACW Confederate figures.  I LOVE them!  What incredible detail on such little guys!  Kudos to the sculptor (Leon?)  Im missing a command unit, but I currently have an outstanding order to rectify that

On to a couple pics



Thanks for looking!  I picked up these figures, as well as several Carthaginians and elephants at Salute.  They are next on my 10mm list!

Excellent work there, nicely done!   

Kudos to the sculptor (Leon?)

Haha, if only!  My sculpting abilities have never gone further than sticking bones on Trolls...  The current ACW range was actually sculpted by Keith Warren at Realistic Modelling if memory serves me!

Well, kudos to Keith then.  They are fantastic figures - im totally blown away by the detail.  Cant wait to do some more!

Cant wait til those a ready also

Thanks Phil.  Yeah, they are my first 10mm, but ive painted 6mm moderns and 15mm stuff before, so Im all around (what Im learning is  ) the true scale!

Excellent - nicely done - and, of course, good to see that you're enjoying 10mm 

[Hertsblue]

Great first effort. Keep up the good work!

Really nice kit sir! 

[jdeleonardis]

Thank you for all of the nice comments everyone! 

I FINALLY got around to finishing a command stand for the original unit.  I also changed up how I based the original stands - I think I like the new way better.



Left is new basing, right is 'old' way


Thanks for looking!

Those are cool

[realthing]

Very nice

[Luddite]

Very very nice!

Love the butternut shades and the lack of 'light grey' which is what the Rebs are usually painted in.

You technique is also top grade; very well done sir.

These look great - going in my inspiration folder for when I buy my 10mm ACW.

Good colours, good variation in uniforms, nice mix of poses on each base;  good job!!
