Custer's hair was blond not red. The Sioux called him Yellow Hair.

Since you're allowing leaders of short-lived states there ought to be room for Emperor Norton.

Shiro, is there any way you can make a 4-era LH for the Davis one?

Added Norton I, its a little raw, I'll add more hair, and a bowtie, also anyone have an idea for a background? Also does anyone have a use for him?
I don't have a plan at the moment, but I might later on
Shiro, thank you for apparently sneaking into my office, reading my files, and making exactly the leaderheads I needed for my alternate history mod that currently only exists on a spreadsheet.
If you're making units to go with these, how about the Nauvoo Legion for Deseret?:
(If not, a basic rifleman would work, but these dudes have way nicer hats.)

As to Norton I: epaulettes are important.
The background you're using is okay. Alternatives will be posted shortly.
Yes he will be used. At least in some of the steampunk scenarios. As will many of the other leaders you're making.
EDIT:
Remember that Norton should be a little rumpled & wild. So the same goes for the background. Basically anything associated with San Francisco of the Gold Rush / Boomtown era. No Golden Gate Bridge - wasn't built yet. Though Norton did have the idea of building a suspension bridge across the bay.
Potential Exteriors
Palace of Fine Arts, or something else from the Presidio
Gingerbread Victorian Rowhouses
Interiors
Would likely find him somewhere like this. But it's hard to find color photos except of such places in disrepair or too modernized. Maybe something like this?

@Axolotl
glad I can help, the Nauvoo Legion look pretty easy to make.
@Blue Monkey
I like the houses, or the Saloon.
I'll post an update later on, maybe with another head. I almost have geronimo but I've been looking for a good hair piece.

You've got a lot on your plate. OTOH, you're one of the few who regularly makes both units & leaderheads. Any thoughts towards making King units to match these LHs?

Added Chef Joseph of the Nez Perce, and John A. Macdonald of Canada, unless there are any other requests that catch my eye, I'll probably just make two or so more Amerindians.
Also an advisor

It would take too long to make units for all these, for The Great Game I planned on making a few king units, like leader in military clothes and suit, and hope it worked for most of the heads.

Will one of those be a Dine with the distinctive headband & turquoise jewelry?
Several of these LHs would also make good advisors. There is a shortage of women & indigenous figures from this era for advisors in any set I've seen. Also, Custer would make a great military advisor.
I agree. In addition to the military one in a beaver hat, a woman & a couple of indigenous units that could be used as Kings / GLs would be ideal. If you can comfortably fit them in.
A rosette at the base of the feather would put the finishing touch on Norton with style.

Upadates, added Chipeta of the Ute
some new advisers
@Blue Monkey,
Armstrong might make a good adviser, and since he is already done, I might throw him in as a bonus.
I tried to add a rosette to Norton I, but I couldn't get it too look right, and it was messing with the resolution of the peacock feather.

The feather looks a bit like it's floating. Maybe there's a way to have it tuck into the hat band?
The more of these you post the more it becomes clear how good you're getting at making subtle changes to the base model's features. Is that Brigham Young on the bottom row? Looks like the Council House or Assembly Hall in the background.
