These figures are Dixon, with the classic Dixon "pumpkin head" on the infantry. Up close the heads do look unusual but I think from a distance in an organized unit that the heads will not be so apparent. The figures have been primed with gray Liquidtex gesso before I started painting them with acrylic craft paints. I mount my foot figures on large headed finishing nails and my horses on plastic 2-liter soda bottle caps. As usual, please click or double click on the images for a larger picture.

When I complete these figures, I plan on posting a comparison between the various horse and musket manufacturers I have.

Good luck on the painting schedule Jim. Look forward to commanding some of them in battle.

I find it interesting to see "WIP" shots like this sometimes, to see how others proceed in their painting.
