Title: How to make a Grenadier de France standard bearer
Post by: kustenjaeger on 24 February 2012, 11:23:17 AM
Greetings

I've realised that in due course I'm going to need a couple of standard bearers with bare poles to go with SYF6 - SYW French grenadiers march attack.  The SYW standard bearers with bare poles have tricorns and have fairly different uniforms - even if I did a head swap I think the poles are attached to the tricorn.  Maybe the SYF6 officer standing with a fusil could have a pin added as a standard pole?   

Regards

Edward

One of the generic standard bearers has the pole over the shoulder, so the headswop could be a possiblity.  I'm not sure on the uniform differences though.  The SYF6 option should be pretty easy though, snip the fusil out of way and then drill a small hole through?
