    Hi All,

    Here are a few preview images of a 75mm 3rd New Jersey Cavalryman (The Butterflies), this will be the next piece in the Carl Reid Sculptures Range.

    As you can see it still requires a little refining and cleaning before he's ready for the moulds.

    It a very colourful project with the typical dark blue tunic, with yellow facing. The cloak is blue/grey with a bright orange linning, hense the name I guess!

    He will be avaiable from www.skminiatures.co.uk as usual.

    I hope you like it!

    Comments are welcome as always!

    Thanks for looking guys

    Carl

    What a great looking subject mate, bit like crusader/cavalier meets Napoleonic in looks.
    Really looking forward to the painted version after your run down on uniform colour.

    All the best

    It is one on my favourite ACW uniforms, the combination of colour and flamboyance make it a very interesting subject!

    Thanks Marc!

    I haven't decided on the Box-art painter yet. I still have the moulds to make etc!

    Did you have a good show in Antwerp?
