The Civil War Series of sculpted figures portrays some of the more
than 3 million individuals who fought to shape our nation. The list
of names and units is lengthy, but each soldier's uniform, insignias
and even the style of facial hair, is first researched and authenticated
by Civil War historians. The figure is then sculpted by hand, hand-poured
into a rubber mold and spun-cast in pewter. It is then painstakingly
hand-painted. Precise painting techniques capture facial expressions
like snapshots in time, and realistically replicate the wrinkles
and creases of battle-worn uniforms.
