Hello everyone,
This is the 2nd Virgina Militia.I'm cont. on with the wet conditions I set as the theme with my other posts.
The pictures came out a bit brighter then normal,but i hope it still looks nice.
You may notice the standard is very familiar in design if not in color.I decided this militia unit was inspired by the performance of the troops at Bunker Hill and are seeking to emulate them in performance.They decided to adopt the design of the standard reported to have been possibly used.

Surely if they're carrying one chap away there should only be the one guy firing in the front rank?
Very nicely done figures. Most impressed...

@Everyone
Thank you for the support!
@mikeb
Why of course,they simply drop him to ground leaving him in agony and fire off a quick shot and throw him back on the now hot rifle and move on.  |
