Airfixing Again

For many reasons I have decided not to limit what I paint and just go for it, so as well as reopening the In The Grand Manner blog I have unpacked this little project because that is what I fancied doing.

I have amassed a small plastic Airfix ACW mountain and having enjoyed the Crusader Rank & File rules at Salute I have now added another 5 base Union unit to the Airfix Project. Currently stuck to cardboard strips is a 7 base Confederate firing line unit as well as the first gun carriages and crews.

I have also started some Jacklex infantry but do not have enough for a complete unit. I also have some Wodensfeld ACW figures recently brought back into production which also compare very favourably...so next up comparison shots!

I think possibly my favourite pose out of the whole bunch - although I liked the marching figure as well!
