Marx Confederate Infantry Reproduction Set By Classic Toy Soldiers Painted

[@carausiuscaesar5672]

I bought a couple of sets of cowboys painted one set grey Confederate and the other set Union blue. Added to each a civil war cannon. Looks ok!

Great job! If you trimmed off the rifles on a couple of those poses you will have artillery crewmen.

Great paint job! I still have my Blue and Gray set from 1963 but it's somewhat worse for wear after siting in the attic for 50 years. Recently bought this CTS set plus a BMC version. Hadn't considered painting them until I watched this video. How did you straighten out the muskets as some of my guys really need it? The hot/cold water trick? That hasn't worked that well for me with 1/72 Airfix guys.

[@marklinnane1744]

Thank you 👍. Yes I just used the hot/ cold water trick to straighten out any bent parts. Though I don't think they were too bad with this set in that regard with the set I got.

What colour did you use for "butternut"? Citadel's XV-88 or skragg brown or something else?

[@marklinnane1744]

Hi ,I used humbrol 225 for the mustard type of butternut and humbrol 110 for the darker type.
