Here is a pic of a 54mm confederate navy officer I just finished. Originaly he was a union officer but I'm making this for my dad and he's an old Navy Man from North Carolina..... The Confederate uniforms at the begining of the war were no diferent from the Union uniforms. It wasn't till later that there was a difference and much of it was custom made for the officers. Seems that despipte the regs handed down they still mixed and matched to their liking with only shoulder boards and markings fitting regs. Despite uniform colors, the cut and style were very similar.
When finished the whole project will include a confederate sailor as well as a 15" Rodman gun and carriage.
Painted using vallejo acrylics.
