Hey there! Just checking in to see how the progress is going! The images look fantastic so far!

Yeah, we're pretty happy with how they've turned out, and I can assure you that they'll look even better in the game. I should give you guys a sneak peek at some point pretty soon

Here's a little teaser. Please note that how they appear here in this screenshot is just a test. Pictured here is Confederate infantry & cavalry

Not a new general, but an updated portrait, and quite a good one - Charles C. Walcutt.

Confederate images, by and large, are very difficult to work with. Still, I'm reasonably happy with how some of them are turning out.

Something else I've been working on, albeit rather amateurishly, he said to an empty room

A jazzed up Thomas Rosser....

Just to give you some idea of the work that I'm currently doing (not that you asked ), here's General Joseph Plummer before the magic, which as you can see is very low quality image, and General Joseph Plummer after I've done my thing. I'm impressed, even if you're not

I think they look really good as well! You've clearly put a lot of work into this - I'm excited to see more of this mod.

The only constructive criticism I could offer - and it's by no means anything major, just if you want to refine further - would be that some of the CSA Officers still have a background (William Starke and William E. Jones), I definitely think it looks cleaner if you can remove it. The icing on the cake would be to try to get a similar "shot" of each leader in terms of how much of the body is showing and the size of the head, but obviously that depends on what you have to work with.

But like I said, those are very minor things, I think you've done an amazing job!

Hey mate, I think you'll like where all this is going. Things have come a long way since July

An edit of John F. Reynolds I recently completed. A mish mash of two different photos to make one.

I want to up the replay value of CW2 with mods, but sadly am either too late to the party or am uniquely dense, as all the mods seem to have bad links for downloads and the creators have moved on. Exciting to see a mod that looks imminent? Please keep me (us) posted as I would love to have a mod that revises the force pools to eliminate mixed brigades, adds more leaders and makes them more interesting with traits etc, and of course better portraits. Thanks!

I'd say that within the next 4 to 6 weeks we should be ready to make the mod public, which is pretty exciting. There will be a lot more generals, with some pretty schmick looking portraits done (in a lot of cases) by yours truly. I think you'll enjoy it a lot. Will certainly keep you posted

A sneak peek of the absolutely outstanding new graphics as recently completed by the mighty @Stratman. Your feedback would be appreciated

Work on this mod continues...

Thank you for getting in touch, it's nice to get some feedback
As for the mod, once we get enough spare time we should be able to finish it off reasonably soon. Off the top of my head, I don't think there's an awful lot that remains to be done. There'll be some big changes and lots of new generals and I can tell you that from the testing we've done it's an awful lot of fun to play

How Sterling Price and the Rebs in Missouri & Arkansas look with the new graphics. Sexy!
