Hi Rudolf,
I do like the way you (if it is you) painted that hussar, congratulations!

[Rudolf Maister]

I have to disapoint you, but it wasn't me, hehe...
Indeed i have one painted in 1/72 scale but I'm not a such master yet, so i don't show my finished figures and planes to others...

Greatings from Slovenia!

And here is my absolut favourite uniform and unit of the napoleonic wars-the British 7th Queen's Own Hussars:









And very interesting to me, the 1807 shako:




There's only a little problem: As you may have seen on the pictures above, there are not all uniformes the same! Could someone explain this to me? I personaly think that the corect uniform by 1815 would be this one:



I hope to get the answer and greet you all!

In 1811 the facings of the 10th were changed from yellow to scarlet when the regiment became 'Royal'. The 10th and the 7th - which had white facings - both received new clothing in 1814, with blue facings and gold or yellow lace. The 15 Hussars retained scarlet facings, and the 18th white facings, both with silver or white lace and buttons.
