I checked the uniform of this Regiment. I have to admit that the book "Austerlitz Le Soleil de l'Aigle - Histore et Collections" makes some mistekes in the uniforms (this is the second one I found); the pelisse of this regiment was azure and not white.
So I modify accordingly:
Russia 1805 - Hussar Regiment "Pavlograd"

nice models, i am in the process of making my own napoleonic paper models but am going for a 6mm and doing a mixture of front/side and paper blocks - i have a those Histoire et collections books and they are good but if they have mistakes then i would like to know whats the most reliable source?
ReplyDeleteDear Michell, sorry for the delayed replay. I am curious to have a look on your papermodels. Histoire and Collections makes sometimes mistakes; I usually try to find sources in the original language because who wrote war closer to the original sources as well (as I am doing with the siege of Turin in 1706 or Battle of Santa Lucia). I hope it helps
ReplyDeletesure here are some pictures of the Grodno Hussars - a variety of concepts i am trying. i kind like the mix of blocks and flats. Planning to make all of Wittgensteins 1812 Corps

very beautiful and interesting the way you do them; I think the visual effect will be great. I will follow you ...
ReplyDeletethank you for your kind words, that means alot as I think your work so far is tremendous and so thorough. I ought to use my blog page to track my work on this but currently i will just be posting over at TMP - in the Flats sub forum, http://theminiaturespage.com/boards/topics.mv?id=224 - my posts will have 6mm in the heading.
ReplyDeleteat preset i am bit busy with work but am now working on Russian Jaegers and one type of the Dragoons - its a slow process as you no doubt know
I will check as your work progresses. I am trying to get to a final point on Risorgimento, Battle of Turin, Leuthen and Austerlitz, writing down a setting of diceless wargame rules. Still a lot to do....
ReplyDeletethanks - that sounds great, i would love to get a copy of your rules when they are completed
