Hello! Ladies and Gentleman’s

I’m French baker, as hobby i practice the modelisme 1/6th (figurines & vehicles).
The figurine is about 30cm (12 inch for you )
Recently I found 4 figurines "American Civil War".

My object is to make them as realistic as possible, but for that I need your help (uniform; gun; accessories; ….), in France the documentation on this subject is rare :(.

I'll put the photos of the progress of my figurines, and documentation that I found.

Thank you very much!

Sorry for my English, I’m not good :rolleyes:

Hello Trusty

This is the advantage of this scale, it allows to be realistic.
I have a hundred figurines (different themes).
:)

Are you the documentation (use for game) to help me ?

Looks like a Model 1842 .69 smoothbore Harpers Ferry or a Springfield of the same model year. BTW, your hammer appears to be broken.

Nope its a Springfield 1812 with the hammer broken off, there is no place on that musket for a percussion cap that the 1842 uses :)

Yes it is a flintlock.
