14th Brooklyn - 28mm Sash & Saber

Here is the newest unit off the painting table - the 14th Brooklyn, or the "Red Legged Devils". These were a joy to paint and are excellent Sash and Saber castings by Chris Hughes. In a rush to get some additional units completed for Nashcon, I  painted just two stands of the regiment for a game of "Across A Deadly Field" (10 figures). The remainder are on the painting table right now. Here is a link to some information on the unit: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/14th_Regiment_(New_York_State_Militia)

 Here are a few shots:

The 14th Brooklyn advance! 

When it comes to gaming, I prefer thick bases so that the gamers have something to grab besides the figures. 

The 14th holds a fence line. 

Like most freshly painted units, these guys routed in their first game!
