Colonial Militia minor repaints (1 Viewer)

[Fusilier]

Guys-
Here are a couple of pics of some minor repainting work I have done on some of K & C's revolutionary war militia figures. I love these releases and wouldn't mind seeing some more. However, I wanted them to have a slightly more drab look, so I repainted the leggings on three of them. I found that the Testors Model Master color 'Panzer Interior Buff' is almost an exact match to the original color of AR 057s leggings.

Here is a back view.

Not perfect, but I like them. I did repaint the haversack strap and powder horn sling as well. Let me know what you think, as these are my first pics to be posted.

I really like your work, I have the 6 militia figures that were released myself and I agree it would be nice to see some more reinforcements!

Wow, nicely done! You fooled my eye, I would have said they came from the factory like that.

Again, bravo! I'm a firm believer in painting your own, especially if you can't find exactly what you're looking for among the commercially-painted figures.

Keep 'em coming, prosit!

Excellent re-paint! I love the orginal figures, but never understood the stiped pants. I thought this was totally unneccessary and only made the painting process harder. Re-painting figures allows collectors to have more variety when displaying multiples of the same figure.

More Colonial Militia figures would be nice.

Thanks for the comments guys. Like I said, a rather minor repaint, but enough for what I wanted to do. K & C's militia figures are great and I would like to see more AWI Continentals in the rifle shirts in the future.

Now I can't decide if I would want to try change the coat facings on the upcoming Rhode Island infantry from white to red....
