Masterbox 1/35 "Attack" 8th Pennsylvania Cavalry 89th Regiment at Battle of Chancellorsville


I have finished building and painting these figures from Masterbox, but not decided exactly how the diorama will look like yet.
Considering these are plastic multipart models they turned out rather well and at about £10 for the box they were a bargain. Though they were not easy to build etc and having patience helped, some parts were very small and fiddly.
I would not recommend these for a novice, but I did pin most parts together.
All work done in Acrylics and NMM, the Guidon is also hand painted.

I have included a comparison picture with a Foundry 40mm CSA Officer to show the scale, which I painted several years ago, also showing a change in my painting style.
Please excuse the shadows on photos, again these were taken by my phone.
Thanks for looking and any comments or questions are most welcome.
Michael.
