Here we have the role model...:

An unlucky sergeant of an Austro-Hungarian infantry regiment, just captured by British troops on the Italian Front in 1918...:





His two medals are the "Silberne Tapferkeitsmedaille" (silver bravery medal)...



... and the 1912/13 "Mobilisierungs-Erinnerungskreuz" (Balkan mobilization commemorative cross), which was awarded to all military personnel who served at least four weeks in a mobilized unit on the occasion of the Balkan crisis from the end of September 1912 to May 30, 1913. ..:




Cheers
 
Any comment on LifeColor's uniform colour?

It is suppose to represent the new colour introduced in the autumn of 1915, but as the Osprey publication describes it, the dyes could vary in hue from grey, green to green-brown. The product appears to be more a darker version of the original pike-grey than an actual shift from this colour?

Haven't seen anything yet , but as you say dyes varied so much ....might get the set as my next piece is a Austro Hungarian bust https://www.planetfigure.com/threads/ww1-austro-hungarian-from-pokrad.172724/

It's going to be a mighty challenge to do justice to the anguished expression of the man in the photo.
