Hello Edward, I like how this is progressing. I'm glad you went with the green uniform, it was quite unique for Berdan's Sharpshooters. I'm considering purchasing this figure, so I will follow your thread. Best of luck the rest of the way. Regards, SG

Edward;

Just a note.....I had a chance to examine three pieces of a Sharpshooters uniform in the Smithsonian collection. A kepi, blouse and trousers....all three were a slightly different shade of deep green so you have some flexibility on colors and can go a little brighter if you want to. HTH
