Continental Militia

A few weeks ago I completed a commission with an 18th Century theme. This post is the first unit from that project.

The unit is painted as Continental Militia from the American War of Independence, or American Revolution, or Rebellion or The First American Civil War - depending on your perspective :-)

The figures are 28mm metals from Perry Miniatures. I have painted them in "campaign" appearance - that is, dirty, dusty & somewhat shabby :-)

An enjoyable project, especially with these lovely sculpts.
