I have started painting a regiment of Russian Horse Grenadiers using RSM troopers, Minden horses and swapping heads with Minden Hanoverian Horse command figures to get the officer, musician and standard bearer figures that RSM doesn't have. The results so far can be found on my blog. link
Here is a picture of the first samples painted

Nice! The Russians used those bad boys a lot during the SYW – more, as I recall, than dragoons |

Update photo:
Since this picture was taken, I essentially finished the 12 figures shown, other than the eyes, and will flag and base the figures tonight. |
