ACW Union Gun Crew

Continuing the slow time refurbishment of some Minifigs ACW figures, I have just completed another gun crew.  This one is for my Union army and I think the figures are listed as Confederate gunners,but with all of these ACW chaps it is possible to mix and match.


In my next post I shall be straying into new territory as I have a go at painting some Jacobite Rebellion figures.

    1. I bought all my figures secondhand, maybe these are they? They are rather charming in a chubby sort of way.

  2. Nice work there Bob- certainly Minifigs do have a definite charm - as your ACW Union Artillery shows. Regards. KEV.

    1. Thanks Kev. They are easy and fun to paint and look good once based, I think.

    1. Do you still have them? So many people sold them off, but I am glad that I hung on to mine, although most are in need of refurbishment.

  4. I am not sure. Most of the remodelled minifigs casting carried the same numbers as the S Range, but witout the 's'. I think that the S range ACW series ended because of the Minifigs shift to the later 'chubby' range.
