Made this small diorama for a Chancellorsville game we did in 28mm.
We had an unhistoric Union victory, but on the other hand Stonewall survived!

More pics and a write up on the Confederate Ambulance Corps can be found on the blog:

Fantastic! They look like Perry. I hadn't thought of buying the set until I saw this diorama. Well done!

wagon looks more Napoleonic period than ACW. Both sides used converted supply wagons for ambulances. But, having said that, great paint job.

Outstanding work

The black trim on the surgeon is a great detail. There is some controversy as to the colour of the sash, as some sources say it was green (it was green in the Union army) – my copy of the Confederate uniform regs is actually pretty vague on this (although it is clear that the braid colour is black) and I think a red sash looks pretty good!

Thank you all very kindly for your encouraging words!

@Frederick: Yeah, I was also in two minds about this, I couldn't find a clear source on this. I was hoping some of the many US readers on TMP, with access to your excellent local museums, could shed light on the matter. But- I'm very glad you liked my interpretation! Let's see if it'll stay red, or if new facts will emerge.

Kind regards from Stockholm!
