Toy style Confederate Artillery.

 Pretty much the same as my Union Artillery\. I gave these crews more uniform Uniforms.



The muzzle explosion is made from a dowel with a craft store bead for the cannonball. Painted cotton or stuffing from a craft store makes the smoke and fits more in the toy world of the figure style. 




The #4 crewman is a converted Britains wearing a primer pouch and pulling the lanyard. 


Many of the heads are from a hobby mold of old Bussler copies.
# 5 man brings the next round from the limber.


Another converted  Britains figure with swiveling arms.



The distances between guns and their limbers is approximate scale distance from the manuals.

Toy Style 54 MM Union Artillery.

 These two guns and crews are made from home cast hobby mold Britains ltd style figures, a few converted Britains Ltd figures, and Gift Store cannons and limbers.
