Mexican Foot Artillery

These the plastic Perry ACW cannons and limbers - three each for £20 or so. They were very easy to assemble with few parts, I didn't even feel high from the glue! I haven't used the ACW gunners the set came with as they are slightly leaner than the OG figures. They are pulled by metal Perry horses and riders. The cannons can easily be unhitched from the limbers as you can see from the photos - I'm mounting the OG gunners (from the Zulu war period) individually on pennies. There is enough room I think for the gun to move limbered with space to place the gunner figures. The riders are painted in the typical colours for my army.

  4. Lovely stuff. I always put off painting the Artillery etc to last...don't know why because they make lovely pieces on the board. Great work!
