I've made a start on adding the Irish Brigade to my ACW Union Army collection. So far I've completed a Brigade Command Element and one Regiment ~

Nice figs. I see you paint with that "white dusting" method. I've never seen that done so successfully. |

Looks good! I plan on starting the Irish Brigade myself but done as they were at Antietam, which I believe means they weren't wearing greatcoats, no boxwood on their hats, just the green flag to distinguish them from the other regiments in the army. |

Very nicely done! An inspiration for my 28mm ACW. |

Nice job !!! Who makes the flags you have an excellent 3d effect |

Thanks chaps! The white dusting is actually Foundry Arctic Grey applied with the remnants of an old number 2 brush. I can't help with the flags, I bought the complete set of three Regiments' flags from the Flea Market at Historicon in July last year. |

Flag looks like it might be GMB. Absolutely not from the Flag Dude! |

Where did you get the flagpole tassels? I like those a lot. |

They were on the flags as bought ~ see above ~ though I think Front Rank do them. |
