Think I've just discovered Russian WWI and RCW in greatcoat and cap - excellent!

Nil thanks. I was hoping that they would have the fronts turned back rather than fully closed. Any other suggestions? Chad

Hi

The only ones I know of with turned back greatcoats are WW1 French but the kepi would have modified somehow to look like a feldmutze:-

Baden infantry 1866. I can use Bavarians minus the overcoat,but thought there might be a figure in greatcoat which is apparently their campaign dress.

Tough one that. Can't think of a suitable figure other than either trim and greenstuff or head swap. Bit tricky in 10mm. Sorry can't be of any further help.

No problem. Thanks for your consideration. I will go without the greatcoat.
