Hi I just bought some kallistra miniatures, but I can't find any color photos of the dragoon and artillery uniforms of the belgian army. So I hope someone can help me out? |

Thanks. But I dont see any dragoons in these pictures. And only one of the artillery. Could use some more information if any is available? |

What dragoons did you have in mind? I don't know of any Belgian dragoon regiments in WW1, at least not named as such. Robert |

I had a look at the Kallistra website. The figures look like Chasseurs à cheval to me, so check out the 5th set of photos, in the column labelled 'Tenue de campagne 1914'. Robert |

Ok thanks. I wasn't able to find any information on dragoons, so I will try and paint them as Chasseurs à cheval then. What about the artillery pieces themselves? Were these painted dark blue or just black? |

Thanks Robert. That was just what I needed! |
