Historical background: the Iron Brigade at Gettysburg
By the Gettysburg campaign, the Iron Brigade consisted of the 2nd, 6th and 7th Wisconsin, the 19th Indiana and the 24th Michigan. Serving in the First Corps of the Army of the Potomac, the brigade had built a reputation for hard fighting in earlier campaigns and was readily recognised by its distinctive black hats.
On 1 July 1863, the first day of the Battle of Gettysburg, the Iron Brigade entered heavy fighting west of the town. Elements of the brigade struck Confederate troops from Archer's brigade and fought for ground around the ridges and wooded areas as the Union First Corps attempted to hold its position against growing Confederate pressure.
The brigade suffered severe losses during the battle, but its action on the first day became a major part of the Iron Brigade's historical reputation. The combination of western-state regiments, disciplined infantry fighting and the recognisable Hardee hat makes it a particularly popular formation for American Civil War armies and Gettysburg scenarios.
The firing-line poses in this set suit the brigade's role in sustained infantry combat and can be used for Gettysburg, earlier Army of the Potomac campaigns or a dedicated Iron Brigade collection.
Available in multiple scale variants. Figures are supplied unpainted and produced in our resin mix for sharp detail and durability.

What scales are on offer?
Here at Battlehonours3D we offer a variety of scales for all tabletop gaming scenarios, 6mm, 10 - 12mm, 15mm, 20mm, 25mm, 28mm, 32mm, 42mm, & 54mm. Due to how small the models are at below 15mm in scale, all models at 6mm & 10 – 12mm will be printed as one complete piece. All sizes 15 mm and above will come in parts with removable roofs so you are able to battle and use the various levels of our multistorey buildings, ideal for placing figures in firing positions.
Are the models supplied painted?
Please be aware this product is provided unpainted and unassembled.
The painted photos displayed are just samples of what can be done with our models. If you would like more information on how to paint the models to the high standard that has been pictured, then please check out our blog articles giving step by step tutorials on how we paint our models. We recommend priming & painting the models prior to use to get the best out of the high-quality prints we provide.
What resolution are the models printed in?
These models and buildings are printed in high quality resin in 12K resolution to get the most out of our designs. The FDM will not be in 12K but still high quality to get the best looking prints available. Our models are produced in resin at scales below 15mm, 15mm and above will be produced in FDM. Due to printing, some models will come as pieces and might require some minor cleaning & sanding prior for easy assembly. Our aim at BattleHonours3D is to provide you with high detailed, realistic prints. We take the time needed to ensure that our prints will not have layer lines, and you will get the finest of details displayed on the models.
Who are the models for?
We offer our models those that would use them for Tabletop War Gaming, RP'ing, for model trains and even dioramas.
Due the potentially small pieces our models are not suitable for children. It is the responsibility of the parent/guardian/carer to gauge the suitability of our products.
