Lancer de Berg info required

[Banjer]

I am currently working on Bonaparte's Lancer. This is the Richard Bailey conversion of the Alan Ball original. He is wearing a greatcoat and a bonnet de police and I would like to know the colours for these items.

Would the coat be the ubiquitous grey?

Would the bonnet be in the uniform colour with a tassel in facing colour?

Any help gratefully received.

Cheers

Bill

Thanks mirofsoft. Anyone know about the bonnet?

I couldn't find anything specific for the Lanciers de Berg. I think if you paint the bonnet de police uniform colour with piping in the facing colour that is a pretty safe bet. If the figure is an officer then the lacing around the lower part would likely be gold or silver, as would the tassel.

Thank you Nigel, these were my thoughts and that is what I will do.
It is better to ask first rather than have a wrongly painted item pointed out afterwards. Not an easy regiment to research but I like a challenge.
