American Civil War project phase 1 completed

Phase one of my American Civil War project has been completed. My Goal for phase one was to paint enough figures to re-fight the battle for Henry House Hill (1^st Bull Run). It took me eleven months (Oct, 2010 to Sep, 2011) to paint the approximant 1500 figures required to meet this goal. Over those eleven months, I successfully avoided the temptations of stating other projects and I stayed focused solely on meeting my goal. This within its self is a great achievement for me. Below are some images of the final product.

My advice for anyone starting a large project like this is: 1) If you’re in the states and plan on ordering overseas, estimate that it will take about 6 weeks to get your order. 2) Set achievable goals. Pick a small or medium size battle and set that as your goal. After meeting that goal pick a larger battle for the next goal. 3) Most important, stay focused on meeting your goal and don’t stray into other projects or periods.
