I'm starting to paint up Perry's Screw gun set for the Sudan and I wanted to put them in blue rather than grey. Does anyone know if the collars are still red for this period and do they still have the yellow trim and knot on the cuffs? It looks like the officer miniature collar is folded down, so I'm assuming that it's meant to be the grey frock. Any help would be appreciated. I can't seem to find any information in my reference materials. |
