More stuff off the painting desk in the shape of the 16th Volunteers of the Fatherland (later the 48th). Raised in Uruguay largely from Italian immigrants and known as the Garibaldi battalion I believe. I doubt very much whether the Garibaldi type uniform lasted very long but I think they’ve come out better than I thought they would. The figures are almost all old Foundry FPW Francs Tireurs plus a couple of spare Argentine officers.
Very interesting regiment - snappy uniforms too.
