New Release - Cuirassier 1812 Bust 1:9 Scale

[Colin_Fraser]

At some point (can't recall when) the Medusa design on troopers' hellmets was dropped in the pursuit of economy and the design on the comb was also substantially simplified. I can't recall if that was actually done in 1812 or 1814 though. Need to hit the books to find remind myself.

ivopreda,... It does seem that the cast is wearing a 'Great-Coat', and a cloak, of some form, which is covering both epaullettes, and part of the Cuirass!

Brigadier (?) Loupe. He & his men wore Hussar uniforms trimmed with wolf fur, with a wolf tail standard.
