Another update: I called it quits on the head and hat. I think they turned out well. I got the head affixed. Now I’ve got to go back and clean up a little. I need to paint the top of the shirt at the collar.
Rifle, hands and weathering are next. Hopefully I’ll have it on the base and done by the 4th of July weekend.

Hi Mike
Looking good with head in place , you've captured the character of the period well
Like the blues as I've said before especially the trousers
Looking forward to seeing more
Enjoy

Update, starting on the 1861 Springfield rifle. I’m painting it in reverse. I think it gives me an advantage. I start out with out lining all of the major components and move on to the metals and lastly the wood.
Hi Mike
Nice start on Springfield certainly looks a nicely detailed piece
Always interesting in how weapons are painted ,presume your using metallics ?
Look forward to seeing how the wood is done
Have fun ....hope you've got the next Figure in your sights !

Update: I’m about done with the rifle. I’ll get it on the figure this evening. Here’s some pics.
Hi Mike
Yep I reckon that weapon looks the business
Look forward to seeing it in position
And of course more on the figure
Happy benchtime

Update: this is the point that I want to rush the figure. Can’t do that. Now it’s time to fine tune the figure. Time to weather the trousers, the coat tails and elbows. I’ll need to also fine tune the ground work and tie it all together. This is the pint that is hardest. I’ve got a nicely painted figure and I’m going to try and dirty it up in and artistic manner.
Thanks for looking:
