Confederate Army Uniforms

[Carl Edward Sambrook]

I have recently purchased the superb 200mm Confederate soldier from Mitches Military Models. I have tried, without success to find a decent picture of a Confederate Soldier showing the uniform and equipment. Can any kind person out there help me out. Thank you.

Think you're main problem is that by and large they didn't have a uniform for a large part of the war but made do with home made equipment or looted union stuff

Thank you Helm, I've pretty much resigned myself to that fact, but with most models there's always seombody to point out a mistake made when painting a military figure.

Thank you Edward, I have taken a look and theres some really great pictures, I now know that the model will be of the 29th Alabama Infantry Regiment.
