The 20th Texas Volunteer cavalry




My confederate cavalry remake with hoofprints, a little mud and the dry dirt of summertime in the South.

  3. I like how the commander is based to stand out, almost a min diorama.

    The skeleton is interesting, I personally don't mind it but I'd imagine a few people would get all bent out of shape about it... but then again they'd probably also not like your incorrectly painted buttons, wrong style haversack for that period of the war, and other "historical inaccuracies". If you like it, then leave it.

    I can't help but add that you seem to get a lot of these painted at a pretty decent pace, I envy your dedication. I seem to get side tracked too easily!

    Anyways- Nice looking figs!

  4. great work! Mr. bones adds a good bit of fun to the regiment. I especially like your basses, the old hoof prints and tall grass adds a great look. Is the guy on the left side of the base with the white flag have sun glasses on?

  5. Thanks for the nice words, no sunglasses that would be taking it a little far. I do like the idea of having a supernatural confederate cavalry.
