my ACW US customs

[cheng]

old customs but new showing 
ok here goes, (for the blood-thirsty members, "you asked for it!")

(the standard of customising has gone up a lot since....with printed PVC stickers for torsos and even cuffs & lapels now....not to mention those molded variants of kepis/bugsbies whatever  so mine really looks elementary/kinder-like to our other advanced customisers...so please tone down on any accolades )

Those shoulder belts are a style used exclusively by Cavalry.

Great customs yet again cheng! I was under the impression that only Confederate artillery wore crimson on their uniform. But I redescovered that Union artillery and Union ordnance also wore crimson like that! And then looked a bit prior and after the civil war and discovered that US artillery generaly wore crimson colour on theis uniform!

oh thanks...ok! where were you when I was asking for guidance on ACW belts (assume youre talking about that girl's shoulder belt...these see-through plastic ones are quite popular with young girls in this part of our world   )

I'm glad you mentioned her, cheng.  I was worried that as neither Wolf Knight nor Andy R had mentioned her either they or me had some problem with our eyesight.  Now I know it's them!

Your modesty in your first post is misplaced - those  belts and braces are a wonderful bit of workmanship as is the painting of the caps.

thanks friends!
with so much discussions focused on her...i think we might need to split this thread and move these side-trackking discussions to our  Direct Service/Parts Queries or 'What's this?' sections 

anyway, if hope this satisfies your curiosity..

Yea artillery units typically wore red, yellow for calvary , and light blue for infantry.  


Very nice Cheng!
