Hi Paul!
It's me again.
First of all: Your Scuplture ist excellenent!
But...:
After my knowledge Tsar Nicolas II. never wore this uniform (Supreveste), for it was reservated only für officers and enlisted men of two single squadrons (1. and 4., because of their tall size) of the horse guards on palace duty (watch- and ceremonial service).
