Down on Sutler Row.


"Sutler Row" or just the vendor area is a part of reenactment events. You can get almost everything you need.

54mm Italian Cantiniere



The man from Sergeant Miniatures,  Mr. Sanzio Guerrini, sent me a sample of his work. He does the Italian Wars of Independent in 54mm metal with side eras of the US Civil War, Hans Christian Anderson, and Canadian Mounties. His work is toy like and fun and he sells both painted miniatures and castings on request. See www.sergeantminiatures.com  he was English language pages.

He's my painting of one of his Bersaglieri  Cantinieres...









My daughter just said that she has "awful teeth" so I'll have to get my "O" brush.

Chargin' Shoot'n TSSD Mexicans.

The last of the series for now. The coats and trousers were painted in two shades of blue but look the same in the photos. Maybe some wear and fading on that long march up from San Luis Potosi.
