WIP Italian Legion Volunteer-Greek Army 1912

[Christosjager]

Hello to everyone,
I am working on a new project, a 54mm conversion of an Italian volunteer from the Italian Legion who came and fight for Greece at the Balkan Wars in the Epirus front. This legion was fully armed and equipped by the Greek Army with the only difference that they had dyed red their tunics and caps as a traditional rememberance to those Garibaldini's redshirts of the 1860's fight for union.
The manequin is from Andrea Miniatures and the rifle is a Manlicher-Schonauer standard Greek Army's rifle.
Greetings
Christos
