AWI Cavalry. My 3 RD Continental Cavalry, lead by William Washington. These were made from Helmet kits, some Britains AWI swoppet parts and Heralds/Britains horses. Several of these came from The Barracks, a company that is no longer with us. I followed the pattern and made plenty of my own...

Here are a couple of pix of some of my original Alamo figures, along with a few conversions mixed in. I just finished painting the Mexican casualty stand, which I am really happy with. I'll be working on some more of these figures over the weekend. By now, I believe that I have over 100...

I decided on a dark blue for the Mexican Artillery teams. I like the way that they turned out. *

Painted some Texans to go along with the Mexicans. I use various browns for this batch. GW paints from the LOTR range. Once again, these are all original sculpts. These figures need not be confined to the Alamo. I can see them defending Fort Apache, or fighting in any number of Indian Wars...

Mexican Conscripts/Militia painted in an off white color. Good color or should I switch to a different color?

A few more of my original Alamo sculpts including Militia Conscripts, Ladder Teams, Texicans, Mexican Artillery and Regular Army. These have been primed with a gray primer. All they need now is a final coat of paint. These are so much fun. I am having a blast with these.
