Hi everyone

Has anyone details on getting the colour here on this 90 mm White Models piece

If anyone has any documentation regarding this regiment, and specifically for the trumpeters of that regiment.

Also, is there much difference between the regiments (in other words, can this sculpt be left unaltered to paint a different regiment, without becoming historically incorrect?

Asking for a friend as most of my stuff is in boxes !

Hi Nap

the trumpeter's had a very specific pennant for the trumpet. There would also corrections needed to be made to the kurta and the schapska plate for other regiments. The one I could see with some modifications would be a trumpeter of the lancers of the Berg, a Dutch lancer trumpeter or other dress of the Polish Lancers of the Guard or the Vistula Legion.

Cheers
