Added a new regiment to my AWI collection.

Great paint Job.
I like the different poses. Good choice.

I would paint the shirts darker. They are looking like just cleaned by Anna Strong.  ;)  :D

Superschöne Bemalung. Aber warum haben die Green-Boys ne blaue Fahne?....:)

Cheers,
Don

Thank you for the kind words everyone! :)

@Pappenheimer

Coats and shirts came in various colors and depending on the sunlight would often fade. I will do some units in darker green like my provisional troops for F&IW and others like these in a more medium green which also shows up much better on the tabletop. ;)

That\'s the flag GMB designs gave for the regiment. I thought about painting it green, but decided I liked the contrast and stayed with the blue. :)

Looking good, but I thought the Green Mountain Boys were a bunch of irregular ruffians?

Don, die sind nicht grün, sondern kommen aus den Green Mountains.  Haben vor dem AWI fast einen Krieg zwischen New York und New Hampshire verursacht und waren so an der Gründung von Vermont beteiligt.

Sehr schön, mir gefällt die unauffällig durchbrochene Uniformität. :thumbsup:

Thank you gentlemen I really do appreciate the support! :)

@Poliorketes

They were indeed irregular militia until 1777 when the Continental Congress approved them as an official regiment into the Continental army under Seth Warner, but not as an additional regiment, but rather an extra regiment.
