James Longstreet (1821-1904) was a prominent Confederate general during the American Civil War. He was born in South Carolina and grew up in Georgia. He attended West Point and graduated in 1842, ranking 54th out of 56 cadets.

Longstreet served in the Mexican-American War and was wounded at the Battle of Chapultepec. After the war, he remained in the U.S. Army and was stationed in Texas and New Mexico. However, when the Civil War broke out, Longstreet resigned his commission and joined the Confederate Army.

During the Civil War, Longstreet served in many of the major battles of the conflict, including First Bull Run, Antietam, Fredericksburg, Gettysburg, and Chickamauga. He was considered one of Confederate General Robert E. Lee’s most trusted and capable subordinates. Longstreet is best known for his role in the Battle of Gettysburg, where he commanded the Confederate forces that launched Pickett’s Charge.

After the war, Longstreet faced criticism from some former Confederates who blamed him for the defeat at Gettysburg. He also became a controversial figure for his post-war political activities, including his support for Republican presidential candidate Ulysses S. Grant and his role in the Republican-led Reconstruction government in Louisiana. Some former Confederates accused him of betrayal and labeled him a scalawag.

Despite the controversy surrounding him, Longstreet remained active in politics and served as the U.S. ambassador to the Ottoman Empire during President William McKinley’s administration. He also wrote his memoirs, which remain an important source of information about the Civil War.

This is a high quality miniature 3D printed by Speira Miniatures in Sweden.

You can paint it as any normal miniature, no need to wash it beforehand. It is delivered unpainted.

Usable for dioarama, wargaming or tabletop role-playing games, such as Dungeon and Dragons, Warhammer, Pathfinder and so on. Also great as decor in your home if you order the large scales. We can always transform any model into a bust if you like, please contact us.

Due to the inherit nature of 3D printing the miniatures might contain imperfections and could require additional cleanup where the support have been; use sand paper or green putty for example. Print layers will sometimes be visable.

3D resin is brittle, even if we use a mixture than makes it more flexible. However it cannot be compared with the normal plastic that is used for example Warhammer, Marx or Conte miniatures. Handle the 3D prints with care, a fall can break them. Glue info here.
