Epic Battles: American Civil War Union Bundle (Part 2)

 I have finished painting American Civil War Bundle.

Here is the Zouave Regiments







I also finished the Iron Brigade. The Zouave, Cavalry, and Iron Brigade were all made of metal. A little more work to clean them, but I think they are nicer miniatures. 









Complete Iron Brigade






This is a picture of the Union Bundle.











This is a picture of the entire force, which includes 12 Infantry regiments, 12 Artillery pieces, 12 mounted leaders, 3 Zouave Regiments, 3 Cavalry Regiments, 3 Iron Brigade Regiments, and MGen Meade and aide de camps.
