3RD NEW YORK INFANTRY

The 3rd New York Continental line, American War of Independence. The thing that I like about the American army during this period is the variety of uniforms! Painting this unit felt like painting a Confederate regiment from the American Civil War. Figures are Wargames Foundry.
I love the poses these figures are in. Its as if they are waiting for Mel Gibson to turn up and give an impassioned speech about freedom and all that, as he did for the Highlanders. If Mel Gibson doesn't turn up they are not going to fight!
