New and Last Company of Hampton's Legion

Hello Again! Here are the last troops to be added to Hampton's Legion. After obtaining some research information on this unit I found them to be a colourful unit with many subtle variations to their uniform. The last company of four figures was the best with a company of Zouaves.







These are Redoubt Enterprises figures with a variety of headgear. The Unit did wear turbans and they could be turned inside out. They were grey inside. They also had a selection of forage caps so I have made them dominant.

The pantaloons did not last long according to written records and were then replaces with grey trousers. The jackets did not have trefoils but did have blue trim on the edge and collar of the jacket.

It was nice to something a little more colourful and also end this unit which has eight companies and the attached artillery battery. I can now continue on the rest of the Texas brigade.
