Last of the AWI Continental Foot

The weekend past saw me finish the last three Continental foot units in the form of two more militia regiments, complementing the three militia regiments already completed, and a unit of skirmish figures:











First up is a twenty-eight figure militia unit which I have styled as Hobart's Regiment:











The figures are exactly the same as the other four militia regiments, with six command and six firing line poses which I have again painted in predominantly greys and browns:





























The command stand is carrying a white GMB militia flag:











The last militia regiment is the Albany County militia comprised of 22 figures, the smallest of the five:











carrying a red militia flag:











The last Continental foot contingent is a unit of thirty-two skirmishers which can be separated and deployed as needed. These are primarily made up from the two Perry skirmishing riflemen packs but I also threw in a few spare line figures for good measure:

















Including a few spare command figures which gave me an excuse to use one of the leftover GMB flags:





































The rifle-armed figures are mainly attired in hunting shirts and were comprised of an interesting mix of skirmish poses:









































Including a figure with a beard, which makes two bearded figures in total across all three AWI contingents:



















There are also two prone poses, one firing and the other reloading, which makes for an interesting variation:



















That is another eight-eight figures completed in this batch:



















I now only have the artillery, two units of cavalry, some staff figures and a dozen or so sundry civilians to complete. The end of the project is now definitely in sight.
