Ferocious looking Hussars! That being said I am excited to see what you can do with the French flankers of the guard. I've got these in the rather long queue as well and would love to see how they turn out for you. Mind you, mine are poor DK copies not original Hinton Hunts!Davidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17663682631274573026noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7538035190723791338.post-57128428506671717292019-09-30T02:40:04.616-07:002019-09-30T02:40:04.616-07:00Mark,
