but why are the yanks blankets blue???

pre-alpha munk... alot of things are being changed.

[ClearlyInvsible]

Ugh. Need proper blanket colors. Must be BROWN.

[Admiral]

but why are the yanks blankets blue???

No worries, I've got the butternut blanket done, and the grey blanket will be added aswell. Also, this is a greatcoat roll, not a blanket.

[ClearlyInvsible]

Hm. Nice.

[Admiral]

What  I wanted to say though was that the blue roll represents a greatcoat. The butternut roll on the picture above is, of course, a blanket.

ah greatcoat ok cool! (i have never seen it don't like that before, but sure they did that)

p.s  that frying pan is a very nice touch!

[Admiral]

I guess I should model that detail on the top, might be helpful.

[munky-wunky]

hmnn ya that would!

found this bit of cool info on overcoats and the fact that it is not "reenactorism "

From Revised U.S. Army Regulations of 1861, Article XIII, 96.
The knapsack of each man
will be placed on the lower shelf of his bunk, at its foot, packed
with his effects, and ready to be slung; the great-coat on the same
shelf, rolled and strapped; the coat, folded inside out, and placed
under the knapsack; the cap on the second or upper shelf; and the
boots well cleaned.

Wow, nice texture work!

[William]

Not sure if this has been asked but are those the final character models?

[Moldplayer]

Looking good.

Can the frying pan be used as a secondary weapon like the sabre briquet? 

[Admiral]

Not sure if this has been asked but are those the final character models?

Not exactly. Models of the uniformes and equipment are more or less final, but the textures may and some of them definitely will be changed, as well as maps will be added. Also, equipment combinations will be different and depend upon the regiment. I am basically modelling uniformes separately and all  possible equipment items sparately. Equipment examples you saw on the screenshots are just some of possible combinations.
