69th New York Volunteer Infantry Regiment

Here are some pictures of my very first historical miniatures, a regiment of Civil War Federal infantry. The miniatures are 10mm and from a company called GHQ. This particular unit represents the 69th New York Volunteer Infantry Regiment (led by Colonel Robert Nugent), the first regiment of the famed Irish Brigade. I even included their distinctive green regimental flag, which depicts the sun peeking out from the clouds above a golden harp.

Each model represents roughly 10-15 men. The dime is just there to give a sense of size and scale. The individual models are about 10mm from the bottom of their feet to their eyes. In the future I will post a step by step process showing my method for painting them. Let me know what you think.
