The wonderful centjours.mont-saint-jean.com site gave me the 7th Hussars.
Apart from removing the plume, it was mainly repainting the busby, saddle trim and some other detailing. No flying pelisse, but in this scale they could be wearing them or not and it would look much the same.

Charge!
One other change I made was to swap out some standing horses for Old Glory walkers, trotters and gallopers that I had spare. Two had missing tails, but I rebuilt them using wire and plaster.
Lovely job on these. Well done.
ReplyDeleteGreat Hussars (Napoleons Battles Basing?) I haven't seen Cavalry done like this in a while.
ReplyDeleteYes, Napoleon's Battles. Getting ready for Waterloo 2015 hopefully with the Marechal Edition, but not holding my breath.
DeleteSuper troopers!
ReplyDeleteWe will see, with only a 20% recall rate I don't think they will be around long.
Deletenice blue and small red scarlet colors make the figures "pop" from their bases..a nice unit indeed..
ReplyDeleteYou are right, The red trim works best on the saddle and the red bag looks better than the previous plume.
DeleteGreat looking Hussars!!
ReplyDeleteThanks. Now I have to do some Light Dragoons.
DeleteNice conversion work Mark - these look much better than the originals and that is saying something!!
ReplyDeleteThanks. I can't do faces as well as DPS do.
