Figure conversions - part 1
Dated: Sept 17, 2002.
From Sander van Straeten of the Netherlands.
A cornucopia of conversions from the Netherlands in 3 parts. Mr. van Staeten's notes are in quotes.
Figures above are all members of the Dutch/Belgian artillery.
"The member of the RHA Rocket group with the lance is the one walking with a rocket held upright which I replaced with a Prussian Ulan lance."
"The RHA Officer on horseback uses a Revell British Infantry Officers' horse, an Italeri French Hussar's trousers and the HäT Rocket Group figure launching a rocket with a sabre instead of the slowmatch."
"Then comes a KGL Heavy Dragoon of the Peninsular War period followed by......"
"......a Dragoon made out of a Austrian chevaux-Legére with some milliput added as plume."
"Then follows a Light Dragoon in Tarleton helmet from the 12th LD also of the Peninsular War period."
Many thanks to Mr. Sander.
