"Pom" - Great New Addition to the Confederates Uniforms.

As mentioned by "Cleaburn" - Now that you have the Program in Place for creating uniforms, how much trouble is it to take one of the above uniforms and change the hat and blanket around.

This is a rough crop of your above picture, changing the hat and Blanket of the unit on the extreme right.

Another uniform that looks different from the other even with the same clothes.

Thank you all again.

Davinci.. I can certainly add another sprite into the mix. Would take about half a day. I'll add it in for the final version.

No, a "Half of a Day" is a bit too much to ask for....."Didn't really know how much time it took"

I'll be happy with the existing ones that You have already made!

But, Thanks Anyway!

These new units will go quite well with "MarkT" new Gettysburg Map!

It's takes minutes to change the textures and hat, then change out the different animations, but the bulk of the time is spent waiting for the sprites to be rendered. I normally catch up on some reading or TV.
I'm writing this whilst rendering the second of the "grey" infantry.

So it won't be a problem.

There's somethin strange goin on here.

The first attachment is a zoom of the African American infantry troops.

They're all smiling!

I understand it's a joke that's over 150 years old, but I would still like to know what's so funny.

And the second attachment is for the confederate dismounted cavalry.

I'm not kidding, some of those guys are death zombies!

Look at their bloodless faces, and their coal black eye sockets.

I knew the Confederacy had a manpower shortage near of the war, but I didn't know it was that bad.
