Commanded by Captain Marmaduke Bell, the Pettus Rifles of De Soto County were organized as Company I into the 17th Mississippi Inf.
Mustered into Confederate service on June 1st 1861 , ahead lay four years of war in the ranks of the ANV.
I got the idea to build this particular figure from Don Troiani's book ' Regiments & Uniforms of the Civil War'.
Scratch built using Magic-Sculpt and Duro except for the head which I had in my 'bit's box'. I adapted it by sculpting the beard and the hat and then painted the figure using Humbrol enamels.
The scale is 120mm or 1/16th .
