1st brigade 2nd division 1st corp

These figures I have had for a long time, these are all from freikorp 15s, I'm really not a fan of these figures, I thought that they are a little to small and the facial detail wasn't good at all. I also had my worries about them being to small with the old glory figures that I already have, but it all looks OK as long as they are all in different units. This is the 80th NY, 121stPA, 142ndPA, and 151st PA. I have the third brigade of the division on my desk currently and they will make up the second Vermont division. i have my vacation coming up this next week so i should be able to knock them and all the command stands out. The flags I made all from home, printed out from a great website I found from Denmark.
All in all I think that once painted and based these figures came out great, I wouldn't use them for popular regiments like bucktails or zuaves but for rank and file troops there not half bad.i didn't spend a whole lot of time on these figures because of the lack of detail in the figures they got the most basic of paint jobs. oh and as i am about to start my Vermont troops can anyone tell me what Vermont Regiments carried a white regimental flag an what ones carried the blue, i cant find anything online at all about the three regiments that i am painting, they are the 13th,14th and 16th Vermont.
