ACW - Rainy Day Play (1 Viewer)

[mestell]

Very rainy here today in southern Wisconsin. A perfect time for me to spend with my ACW collection. Here is a photo featuring some of my latest arrivals of Texans. The 1st and 5th Texas Regiments of Hood's Texas Brigade seem to be over running a Yankee defense position. This was inspired by the Texas Brigade's tenacity on July 2, 1863 at Gettysburg when they overran Devil's Den.

You are welcome Rob. The Devil's Den rocks and boulders are very well done and they go very well with the WB Hasty Works rock walls defensive sets.

Nice dio Mike.

WORK! {eek3} Scott, that's a four letter word. I'll play a little extra just for you.

Thanks Martyn, your glossies are always a delight to view too.

Thank you Francisco . . . . . perhaps we will see some mounted cavalry releases fro WB as we enter into 2014.

Great dio, Mike! I always look forward to those "rainy day's" you guys have up in Wisconsin.

Thanks Lo. We need a good ground soaking before everything freezes up. It insures that plants/trees/shrubs will survive through the dessicating winter months and will make a much nicer "green" spring.

Outstanding! Keep them coming! Brad

Will do Brad and thanks.

Lovely work, Mike. Every cloud does have a silver lining!

Thank you Colman . . . . I hope all is well with you over there in Ireland.

Rainy days aren't so bad. Now with the winter approaching (I call it the Dark Days) I will be spending more and more of my time working/playing on my WB collection and doing family research on Ancestry.com

Here a couple more photos from different angles. These show some of the progress I am making on the revisions to my dio table. Anxiously awaiting the Turnpike Fence sections with Rebs sets and other sets such as "Hell for Glory", and the Death of Cushing and all its related sets. These will all be incorporated into my revisions . . . . I am sure it will be worth the wait.

You are very kind and thank you. You can be sure I will continue to share photos here on the forum, especailly as teh cold and inclimate weather of winter becomes a reality here once again.

Why thank you Dan . . . . . To get a set of the Devil's Den rocks and boulders in your Trick or Treat bag would make for a great Halloween.

Why thankyou George . . . . I'm glad you like the photos and that they have given you something to think about as you head off to Gettysburg next week. I just can't enough of that battlefield and its always a pleasurable trip for me as I am sure it will be for you.
