Hello Planeteers,
Just finished this proud and snobby officer of Belsunce dragoons.
He will be part of the general staff and officers in the Yorktown diorama.
I have converted this figure from Front Rank Figurines , a British grenadier officer to a French officer of Dragoons in the 1779 regulation coat.
Green coat with Aurora ( yellow-orange) lapels, collar and turnbacks.
I have "shaved " the horizontal pocket and replaced by a long vertical pocket as mentioned on the regulation for regiments with silver buttons.
This regiment contributed with some detachments at the siege of Savannah (1779) and later at Yorktown.

Excellent work as usual Daniel. This will be a stunning diorama by the time your are finished. A labour of love I suspect.

Cheers
Chris
