7th Hussars

This was another one of the DPS painted units I got for Xmas last year.  It was a bit odd and I couldn't decide whether it was the 4e or 11e Hussards.  I cleaned them off, but hadn't decided when along comes the chance to do Waterloo and what am I short of?  British light cavalry.

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.
