Don Cossack artillery, Russia, Napoleonics

[svt]

Hello everyone.

I present to your attention an gunner of horse artillery companies of the Don Cossack Army. Russia, 1809-1816.
Shown is No. 1 crew of a 6-pounder gun, with rammer and sponge. The sponge was not wetted after each shot, but only when the gun barrel warmed up during intense shooting. The Cossack is depicted in the process of wetting a sponge in a non-statutory bucket.

Scale 1/30.
Polymer clay, epoxy putty, metal, wood.


Enjoy watching )
