Fantastic work so far! Very well animated poses.
Question- Is the equipment, weapons (muskets in particular) cartridge pouches, packs etc from Shanandoah as well?

Keep posting progress

Colin

Really liking the poses you are creating, like others have said, very well animated.
But where are the bare heads and the boots coming from?, you have metal and resin heads they would suit what I need.

Same question... almost... where did u get the precast torso and pelvis pieces as well as the boots and hands?
This is really coming together Christos

Thanks again for the feebacks,
Mario no plan to copy any figure of this diorama my friend, as the great Horan says these figures are major conversions and not scratches and a conversion can't be a commercial miniature
Colin a lot of fellow modelers here in Greece helped me by giving me a lot of equipment, books and critique. A lot of things are from Shenandoah (weapons, heads, swords, pistols, canteens etc) but also I can see some staff from different companies which I don't know their names, the torsos and pelvis are mine creation who a friend make a lot of copies from white metal, the shoes are from a pair that I found in my scrapbox (I think it's a Latorre creation from his shoes set) who also a friend make a lot of copies in resin, this particular friend also copy wooden canteens
Regards.
Some more progress
