Admiral Horatio Nelson - Napoleon of the seas, 1:24

[Marcin Morawski]

Hi, fellow modellers!
I'm getting ready to work on this beautiful figure, but I need some information on where to place these three small elements, all the pictures I could find show the coat en face. Are these some hooks, straps, fringes?
I'm also interested in the way the saber is tied.
I will be grateful for any help.

I can't figure out what these items might be.
The following link at the Royal Museum Greenwich shows Nelson's uniform coat from every possible angle:-

If I didn't know better (and I don't), I'd say they resemble suspender clips. But I don't see any place for them as such on the figure.

Does the figure have a sword, they could be sword belt buckles.

Colleagues, you are invaluable.
It is now clear as day, indeed, that the trousers are without a belt, and there are three buckles, two in the front and one double in the back.

I will add that the one in the back will not be visible anyway, after attaching the coat tail.

This is how the saber should be mounted according to the manufacturer:

In my opinion, it's a bit empty here... Some clamps and fasteners would be useful here.
Found on Wikipedia. Is it legit?

Greetings, Marcin.

That sword is rather chunky for an Admiral. It would be hung on a frog, rather than hangers as you have shown.

That sword is rather chunky for an Admiral.

Rather like a cleaver...
Is this more accurate? I will have to hire someone to do the 3D printing.

I have read somewhere that Nelson didn’t wear his sword at Trafalgar. It was found in his cabin after his death and later presented to Lady Hamilton.
So if you wanted to model Nelson at Trafalgar you could always leave the sword off.
