Russian Grenadiers from Musketeer Mins

Post by Spiraluk » Tue Mar 11, 2014 8:42 pm

On the way to get molded are Russian Grenadiers, Grenadier command and some extra infantry command in Karpus hats. The miter for the drummer may be a bit suspect, but I think it make the unit look complete. I stand by to get slated by others that probably know better lol!

bill don't think you'll need a standard bearer for your russian grenadiers as i,m pretty sure they didn't carry them . also quick question will you be doing grenadiers in a defending position like your russian musketeers as some regiments still had enternal grenadier companiers after 1708

They seemed to have had standards after 1712 so I'd rather give people the option. And yes I'll be doing standing poses for them. Thanks for comments chaps.
