Title: Units of ACW - 100% Peter Pig
Post by: Anatoli on March 15, 2023, 10:46:59 AM
Hi,

It has been a long time since I painted miniatures for ACW games... 

So here are 2 new units :

- The 5th NY zouaves with head swap (réf. "43. Zouaves in kepi marching" and "94. Italian fascist cap");
- A regiment of the Irish Brigade.

They are lovely! And they look to be very happy little piggies  :D

What a great collection - thanks for sharing.

I'm just as impressed with your basing. How did you get your static grass to stand up so well? Oh and what size and make?

Wow ! Thank you very much for your really nice comments, gentlemen...  ;)

@simmo : I use 2 mm static grass. It is a standard grass from railways miniatures (I do not remember who made it...).

I just slowly spread the grass, from 10 - 15 cm above the base, on a base partially covered with pva glue + water, and turn it down to remove the excess grass. It works with a 2 mm grass... Not sure for size over 2 mm...

Cheers
