I am painting some heavy calibre casemate artillery for my ACW army, for the really heavy guns using TA Miniatures. I have the 8 inch Columbiad and 24 pdr guns. I found these replicas (or maybe originals) on-line. The colour of the carriages seems to be a different shade of green from the usual olive green of the field artillery. Is this a trick of the lighting or a conscious decision to portray maybe a naval artillery colour? The TA miniatures appear in an almost pea green.
My models have been primed and I'm waiting for the paint I decided upon. Frank Patterson recommended Plaid Delta 2095 Ceramcoat Acrylic Paint "English Yew Green"
The following pictures are from TA's on-line catalogue which I will use as a guide to my own guns. I'll post pictures of my guns when they are finished.
