Brig General Turner Ashby, 54 mm mounted kit
cast in lead free white metal pewter and
resin scenic base. Detailed kit
description & history - Turner Ashby was
known as -The Black Knight of the Confederacy -The Carolina Miniature kit of
Ashby on horse may be the first mounted kit honoring Turner Ashby. The horse
was cast with special care. There are only a few kits with a horse with both
front feet off the ground. Many kits use some ground effect under a front
hoof to give the horse's back legs support. A piano wire was
cast inside each of horse's back leg(s) which will prevent any possibility
of sagging in the future. The 54mm pewter kit is unpainted, and comes with
its own resin base. Artist Doug Cohen deserves special mention for his
painting and his work on the horse. Kit includes some photo etch bridal
parts and horse shoes as well as the famous fox horn Ashby used to sound the
charge and a feathered plume for Ashby's hat.
Kit painted by Doug Cohen.
Ashby's head is also sold separately. See photo below for close up of the
side, feather, slouch hat with acorns. |

Lt. Gen. Richard H. Anderson 54 mm mounted kit
cast in lead free white metal pewter and
resin scenic base. Detailed kit
description & history - Fighting Dick
Anderson was the ranking Confederate General from South Carolina. General
Lee held Anderson in high regard referring to him as his "noble soldier"
after the role he played at Chancelorsville. He became a Corp commander
after Longstreet's was wound in the Wilderness. Fighting Dick was also the
hero of Spotslyvania Court House arriving in time to prevent Grant from
turning Lee's army. It was at this time Lee offered Anderson, the fallen JEB
Stuart's, command of the cavalry of the Army of Northern Virginia. After
Longstreet's return to duty, Anderson commanded what was called Anderson's
Corp at Petersburg. Anderson is unpainted and cast in 54mm pewter. He uses
the same horse (cast with piano wire in his back legs for strength) and
torso as the Ashby kit above. The only difference is the head and his LeMat
both sculpted by Doug Cohen.
Anderson was painted by Doug Cohen. |

Wheat's Tiger Rifles (1st Louisiana Special
Battalion Zouaves) 54-mm scale white metal kit box art painted by Doug
Cohen.
"Tigers, go in once more,
go in my sons, I'll be gloriously God-damned if the sons of bitches can
ever whip the Tigers!"
The most famous Louisiana unit from
the war, this battalion took the nickname "Louisiana Tigers"
from its Company B. Its reputation led in time to the nickname being
applied to all the Louisiana units in Virginia. Though generally
represented as being completely outfitted in Zouave uniforms, the
battalion had only one such company-the Tiger Rifles. The battalion began
organizing at Camp Walker in New Orleans. It moved to Camp Moore and
completed its organization on June 6, 1861, with five companies and 416
men. Ordered to Virginia, the battalion became the first Louisiana unit to
be engaged in the war, when it fought a skirmish at Seneca Falls on the
Potomac River on June 28. The men played an important role in the Battle
of First Manassas, July 21, by helping to hold back the Union flank attack
until more troops could come up and form a defensive line. In battle, 8 of
the battalion's men were killed, 38 were wounded, and 2 were missing. The
battalion was assigned to General Richard Taylor's Louisiana brigade along
with the 6th, 7th, 8th, and 9th Louisiana regiments later in the month.
That winter, the men drilled and did picket duty. They sometimes fought
with other Confederate units and among themselves. One of the internal
fracases led to the December 9 execution by firing squad of two men of
Company B, the first men executed in the Army of Northern Virginia.
Taylor's brigade joined General Stonewall Jackson's army in the Shenandoah
Valley in May, 1862. The battalion played the major role in the capture of
Front Royal, May 23. On May 25, the battalion was detached on the left
flank of the army and saw no fighting in the Battle of Winchester. The
brigade distinguished itself again in the Battle of Port Republic, June 9.
Rejoining the Army of Northern Virginia near Richmond, the brigade
participated in the Battle of Gaine's Mill, June 27. In that fight, Major
Wheat and 5 other men were killed and 16 men were wounded. The battalion
was so reduced in strength by the end of the Seven Days' Campaign, and the
men were so hard to control following Wheat's death, that it was
recommended that the battalion be disbanded. This occured on August 15.
During the war, 39 men of the battalion were killed, 15 died of disease, 2
were executed, and 1 died in an accident. "Tigers Never Say Die" |
