Behind a stone wall
Good evening fellow lead heads,
As most of you know my collection is 100% Civil War mainly because I have a room dedicated to my memorabilia, so for me to start any other period would seem out of place. So for the reason that I'm probably not going to get into any other period I'm trying to make what I have the best they can be.
I dont really have alot of miniatures, maybe 1000 at the most. I've redone quite a few so far in the style of using sand and gravel as vegetation. I'll continue this until both armies are complete in this fashion. I really dont want to buy more lead and not be satisfied with what I've already finished. By the time that I'm done I think they should look halfway decent (I hope). Anyways heres a few behind a stone wall.

Houses on the cheap
Good evening,
These houses that I'm putting up here ,Ive never put up before. That are intact...I have not blown them up...yet. Anyways I bought these little gems in a grocery store for 4 dollars each. They were just bare wood
but I thought they were a hell of a deal. Their real wood almost a half an inch thick. The windows and door were all cut out. I added the paint, doors , window frames, signage etc. The roofs on a couple of them is corregated cardboard and real macaroni. I added the room on the roof of the Woodstock building
and the roof of that room is the one with real macaroni. That kinda weird isn"t it...the things you use to finish the job.

More infantry from both sides
Hello everyone,
Well last week the power went off in my house for a split second, I mean a split second and fried my computer, so I had a chance to work on more of the infantry. So here is a bunch of shots for everyone to look at.
