1877 Russian foot kepi picture

[lekw]

Kind of an odd question was wondering if anyone had a picture of the 1877 Russian foot with kepi figure? I was wondering if I could use the figures in the pack as WWI Russians just to add variety to the WWI figure poses? I am ideally looking for a WW1 Russian type figure advancing or charging with a bayonet on the rifle.

For WWI use the 1877 figure in furushka which is identical to the peaked cap used in WWI. It is an excellent advancing figure with bayonet, backpack and blanket roll. The Kepi figure will look too French for a WWI Russian.

Yes, the kepi went out of fashion in the Russian army in the late eighteen-hundreds.

Here's a picture of the Russian Infantry in furushka



The officer and ensign are really useful for WW1 as well - the drummer isn't as he is wearing the kepi

Do you know, I never even noticed the drummer when I unpacked mine.

Really useful - filing this for future reference; thanks, chaps

Yes thanks all this will help a good deal they look about correct for WWI.

I use them as WWI Guard Infantry to differentiate them from the line. I also use RJW infantry with peakless caps in my RCW White Army.
