6mm American War of Independence (AWI) miniatures. Figures by Baccus miniatures.

I have painted some American War of Independence British, Loyalist and Continental troops. These figures were manufactured by Baccus miniatures. The figures came in Army Packs (listed below). Since I painted three of each army at once I decided to inject as much variety to create colourful armies. Normally it isn't possible to paint individual units of only twenty four 6mm figures. I got a bit carried away and ended up hand painting flags on cavalry units (which I would normally leave as single colours) and kilt stripes on the Highlanders (who would normally get a blue under and green dry brush). I haven't had a chance to get flags sorted out for these figures yet. But I think the results so far look good.

Update (28th October 2007): Pictures of the figures based can be found here
