Your help is required … these North Star figures are identified with the mentioned unit … why? … is there any special distinction in their uniforms that differentiates them from other units? … they must be painted in one different way to the rest? …
Thanks in adavance for your help. Amicalement Armand |

Several are wearing glengarries and they have a distinctive coat designed to be worn with a kilt and sporran. |

Given the cut of the coats, they may have been designed to wear trews. link |

A Google search for 79th New York Volunteer Infantry, then clicking on 'Images" brought up a lot of illustrations that may be helpful. For some reason I could not create a working link here on TMP. Tom |

God help anyone used to painting butternut and dark blue that now has to tackle that tartan. Great unit could emerge though. |
