That's pretty nice. I like the bases too. |

But the guns should be painted artillery olive. |

Kind of you to say so Ochoin :) As far as the carriages are concerned: 'Carriages could have been olive, or gray/blue depending on the paint on hand in the battery. Hope that helps. All info is from "Mr. Polk's Army" by Richard Winders.' TMP link |

cameronian: A facinating conflict, IMHO. Your beautiful battery reminds me of some great games of the Mexican American War I had the good fortune of being able to participate in some years ago. Thanks for the photo. John Miller |
