Just how different were Russian infantry uniforms between 1905 and 1914? In 15mm scale, is it something that can be done with a paintbrush or are the differences really more than that? |

The differences will be more than just color, but your tolerance to it is the critical factor. What he regs say and what happened in the fields is rather great as well, so there is a lot of room for fudging the details. This will be helpful:

Well the 2nd image did not display, but I hope the link works for you. Here is a photo of typical 1914:
and rather small photo of actual 1905:

Thank you. I guess my question boils down to this: should I use Old Glory 15's Russians, right uniform but no fixed bayonets – or Khurasan's 1914 Russians with fixed bayonets. And of course I might not go down the path to this war anyway… I'm so flighty. |
