Another American cavalry unit which adopted the designation 'Hussars' was raised in New York in 1884. This unit took a while to recreate, I think it was three separate purchases to muster the four figures required, and they all needed paint stripping and some repair work, one having part of its side blown away. For reasons unknown, this casting was made without sword or scabbard, so I had to add my own castings.

(Campaign news. This troop has crossed the Canadian border.)
A lovely unit with a fascinating flag. I was notified that my Dorset Heads are in the post so I am really looking forward to getting some conversion work myself done..
ReplyDeleteI will enjoy viewing your collection! I have an order to send to Dorset, for some RHA figures, and some right shoulder-arms.
