Officer of Dragons, 1870

[F Troop]

Getting ready to order this figure and would like to know the original color of the tunic???? Is it dark green, blue or black? I've seen it painted by different artists and can't decide.

Dark Blue. The picture you show is too black.

As Chris says Dark Blue

Nice picture of a NCO from Alfonse de Neuville
