Not many but a couple when I was still around. Now that you mention it I wonder if I don't have a single base of one somewhere.<br /><br />But hey, if you have pics of any of the Sudan stuff I'd be happy to post them here. I love knowing his work is still marching around on tables somewhere.<br /><br />Thanks again for the comments!<br /><br /><br /><br />Peterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15256056581452042795noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-581997510115148955.post-30251750544454740992013-06-18T02:19:57.142-04:002013-06-18T02:19:57.142-04:00Hello, Peter

He was truely a great guy, and many people in Sacramento miss him. I remember looking at his ACW collection. It was unique and impressive. He put so much detail into every unit. I remember a reb unit that he showed me. It was fully animated like a Ron Troiani painting! The flag had holes, and rips and tares in it. The Bearer was a casuatly handing off the flag to a guy next to him as he was going down! That regt. looked like a diorama! He was ahead of his time in painting and concepts. <br /> Another thing about Stuart was that he was a GREAT gamer! He played the game and didn't bitch and wine about if he won or lost. He was always a pleasure to game with! <br /> It was really great to see some of Stu's figs.. I belive he sold a lot of his ACW stuff before he passed. He got a huge amount for some of his ACW figs.. Upwards of several hundred dollars for just two reb Regts.! He sold them so he could take his girlfriend out on a trip or something. What a loss... <br /> On the bright side. At least Stuart still lives on in our memories and cherished miniatures that he left behind. In fact some of his old pals and myself will be using some of his Sudan collection. We will be playing a battle someware in the Sudan...Anyways, I really like your Blog and follow it. Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
