William Britain 2005






William Britain® - Civil War Series 2003

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.
