One thing about the Christmas tree covering my painting desk stopping me painting, not casting and it being a bit cold to set up battles (even with a heater) is that it leaves time for other things. Like getting a load of pictures online. So, ACW Union and Confederates, the whole range apart from artillery and carts has now been put on Pages;
 |
| Sadly, only a few are of painted figures. Most are of very old unpainted masters |
 |
| The painted ones are factory painted figures that originally came with Garrison. |
Union and Confederate figures each have their own post.
These were some of my favourite figures, never did get the armies finished though.😔
ReplyDeleteI personally tend to use my Rose 20mm figures - smaller, less detail, look OK - though cavalry aren't much good! Might do some of these later though - but as French or Peruvians or something!
DeleteAre these 25's? I don't remember them in the wargaming section of my (Greenwood & Ball) catalogue c 73? 74? Just curious. I've 'done' ACW in 22mm, 15mm and 54mm, and having chosen the first after 50 years of trials.....have no interest in another.
ReplyDeleteThey are 25s - they appear in the 90s SKT catalogue but not the early Garrison catalogues. If I had to guess I would say late 70s - after that Greenwood and Ball seem to have concentrated on 15mm figures (I don't have them!) rather than 25mm, but I can't pretend that's any more than an educated guess!
DeleteIm currently waiting delivery of the two Garrison catalogues that I bought on E Bay. Really looking forward to drooling over the pages, sad really.
ReplyDeleteNot at all sad. Quite logical response really.
