Rafa, Very nice. I like the Shenandoad figure kine. If I may make a suggestion, if the figures are Confederate you may want to remove the bugle on the kneeling figure's forage cap. This item was a regulation item for the Union army and they would most likely become a rare item to see on a cap as the war went on.~Gary
Gary,
Thanks a lot for your words. You are in right; as you can see in the pics the kneeling figure is fixed with "blue tac" only for composition purposes (of course I must remove the bugle). Thanks a lot for this comment. by the way ¿What do you think about the tree?

Rafa, I would go with the tree.~Gary
Hi,
I have begun the process of making my first tree. The scene will have one "big" tree and al least another one more thin. I plan to integrate some branches into the trunks with photoetch leaves and some little bushes.
I attach two pics with the "big tree". Please let me know your comments.

Now that's an interesting picture, Gray ... seems to me that they pretty much left the place untouched as it was then ? It still looks like what you see in many diorama's and paintings.
... Well, what a difference with Waterloo ...
I attach a pic with the "injured" figure. You can see the jacket and trouser. I am very disappointed with the jacket work; I think this is too dark and also I must add a lot of shadows and "highlights". Please, let me know your oppinion about it and how to improve the results.
About the trousers I have painted a "butternut" pseudo-color. I tried to make more contrast in the trousers (mainly for avoinding the people look at the jackett ).
Please, let me know also your opinion about it.
Thx,
Rafa

Gray,
Thanks for your help. You are right: probably I must retouch some highlights.
By the way, you must note that this figure is composed by the Shenandoah Miniatures SH-C38 Confederate, Lying Down Part#: SH-C38 with a new head, both from your shop.
