They do look like nicely sculpted figures and I welcome the idea. They may well "do" for irregular warfare on the Missouri/Kansas border, especially with the variety of weaponry, but as bushwhackers? Not convinced.
Not a traditional embroidered shirt amongst the lot of them. Only one pistol each. Not a feathered plume to be seen. Kepi/forage caps instead, as for regulars. Even recent haircuts, short back and sides in most cases.
Who knows? These may be nearer to reality, but not what traditional tales (even contemporary photos) tell us.

Yes, they're decidedly sartorially understated, Deadhead. |
