Hi cheng,

thx for the compliment. You can disoving your Proplem, if you spend only the Officers and the non comissioned officer the cuffs.

I know it, it is very difficult to make each figur as an individual person. For the future I have prepared 10 different heads for each regiment, so that I can them give some more recruits.

Best regards
Bennain

So, now I'll present you my new custom. It was inspirated by figurs which was designed from Simmi and Funky.

I took a native american (indian) from Set 3733 (see Collector page 127) and then I removed the blue imprint. After that I painted the shoes and gaiters. finally I have given him some last details.

Best regards

I've made some changes in the regiment structure, so you see the results.

Update: 17. Febr. 2006

My CSA Cavalry have reached the full strength. Here is a new pic without horses.
