Off the Painting Table (May 2020)


I have completed the initial batch of formed infantry for both AWI armies I am currently building.

A unit of Loyalists (De Lancey’s) with their distinctive white hats (which shows they are ‘good’ Americans, because a white hat always denotes the ‘good’ guys). I have given the unit a single Union flag.


For the Rebels, I wanted an unusual unit and choose the Virginia Convention Guards in green jackets and hunting caps. I gave this unit a National flag.


Lastly I painted a brown coated unit, the 1st Pa. They actually look better than I expected.


So, next up for both sides are units of skirmishers, an artillery piece and generals, plus sundry markers etc.
