One thing you may wish to look at in the uniform accoutrements is that unlike the concept of Confederate leather being all "russet" in color, at the beginning of the War, most holsters and belts were of Federal pattern, and black in color. Some of the leather was captured from Federal arsenals or baggage trains. Only later, when the South was unable to obtain or manufacture black dyes did natural or oil-impregnated (stuffed russet) leather become the norm. The choice is yours, regardless.
