[ACW] Berdan's Sharpshooters WIP

Finally some ACW headway.
I've had the awesome Redoubt Enterprises Berdan's Sharpshooters mini's for some time now. I've been looking at prints and color plates, as well as researching through their re-enactors and other sources.
Finally my first two test figures are knocked together.

These are modelled with the distinctive pack and frock coat which was probably long gone by Gettysburg. I'll do a few with other variations as well. I haven't added the red diamond or the brass buckles etc as this is primarily a color test.
I plan on doing a few bases of pairs of sharpshooters, as well as a couple of three figures. I also plan on having a few mixed on the other stands.

[ACW] Berdan's Sharpshooters

So as part of the Gettysburg Refight scheduled for next year I have volunteered to help out!
I got interested in Berdan's Sharpshooters and when Pooch pointed out Redoubt Enterprises' Sharpshooters minis it was all over.
Now that they've arrived they are even better than expected, marvelous sculpts.

They will be about 4 stands of Wards Brigade. On the 5cm square bases that I think we're standardizing I will probably use 3 each, unless I mix them with my Perry plastics.

Yes they even have Prussian packs

The whole of Ward's Brigade will be 11 stands representing the 124th New York as well as the 86th New York, the 3rd and 4th Maine as well as the 20th Indiana and 99th Pennsylvania.
I'm gathering various details to try and represent these regiments and it should be fun.
I haven't ordered a General yet to represent Ward or Colonel Berdan, but I do have a cannon!
Thinking about some different heads as well, we'll see.
