So I thought I'd post pictures of my 28mm AWI collection from many years back. These guys were really the first substantial army that I built up (been added to since). A guy called 'Old Bob' (as opposed to 'Young Bob' of course) both members of the Reiver club at the time, had a British army so I started (with Rob Andersons donation of figures he didn't need any more) to collect the Americans. Bob then stopped coming to the club and being left with one side then got going with the Brits.
So, on with the pics, The photos are ok (bit much direct light on some of them). Americans first:
6th Pennsylvanian:
4th New York:
2nd Rhode Island:
1st Pennsylvanian:
Skirmishers from the 2nd Pennsylvanian rifles:
American militia:
Virginian horse:
American artillery:
American Brigadier:
The figures are a combination of Old Glory, Front Rank and the odd Perry.
The British will be next, followed (hopefully when I finally get time) finish off the 15mm Franco Prussian artillery.
All the best,
Dave,
