I have been working on these conversions over the last couple of days. They depict an additional troop of the 106th Cavalry Regiment of the Illinois National Guard raised soon after 1927. I could not resist making such a splendid unit. They will be part of Army Spangled Banner. Here are background photos, work in progress and finished product. Conversions as ever with matchsticks and masking tape.
Another nice repair and a really great choice of uniform!
ReplyDeleteThe uniforms and the heads which just arrived the other day came together nicely. Cool uniforms indeed.
DeleteExcellent repair work and a great looking unit .
ReplyDeleteThanks. Not fine scale modelling but fine for the tabletop or carpet gaming.
DeleteThose figures look spectacular. Well done!
ReplyDeleteThanks!
DeleteWell done! Great unit to add.
ReplyDeleteCouldn’t resist such a unit. Do you know of anything similar in Canada of the same period?
DeleteIt’s amazing that you restore and transform such battered old toys. You could be one of the craftsmen on the Repair Shop.
ReplyDeleteThanks, fit for purpose I think.
DeleteA very nice addition to the American army.

ReplyDeleteMore excellent repairs and upgrades to the National Guard units. Are you going to include a shoeshine boy? :)
ReplyDeleteMight do if I can find a suitable figure...
DeleteVery striking - excellent conversions. Interesting last paragraph.
ReplyDeleteStriking is the word. The last paragraph does make you think...
ReplyDeleteThis makes a book like this almost the uniform version of Mixed Train Daily.
