Trying to do the Irish Brigade, a lot of the shell jackets I see only have slouch hats, because they are mainly confederates?? Any suggestions would be helpful….Thanks!! |

Blue Moon CSA infantry packs have them, but they come 30 per pack and half are in hats. |

Minifig does a Zouave in kepi
Stone Mountain has them as well but I don't know what they look like, as well as Musket Miniatures (these would be similar to Stone Mountain same sculptor) |

You can try: link The figures have mixed in with our Peter Pig figures reasonably well (a bit taller, but they can blend in.) Excellent service from Rob, too! |

I took Old Glory figures with kepis and shell jackets. I added epaulets with paper and superglue. I also filled in the top of the kepis to at least make them look flat and more like forage caps. I think they turned out pretty well. You can do the same with any shell jacket/kepi combination from Battle Honors, Blue Moon, etc. TMP link |

Those Eureka are really nice. Too bad I don't need anymore…..maybe one day if I want to do a special unit. |

Musket miniatures is out of business, sad to say. |

Friekrops 15 has specific Irish Brigade figures. link
For the Irish Zouave regiment I just used their generic Zoauve with Kepi figures. link |
