I know Emhar does a Prussian infantry set in plastic but what about the Danish side? Will ACW Union infantry work or Emhars french set? |

I would stick with 10mm or 15mm as you can buy the specific figures for this conflict. |

Although this might win the 2016 tmp award for most obscure figure request. |

Great coated figures with Federal Kepi would work. Thed old Esci Crimean Russians so would be a decent starting point. Or maybe even Sfrelets Winter Russians for 1877. Should be an easy but distinctive army to in plastic. Good luck. Remember as most of the fighting was in winter than ideally the Prussians should bed in greatcoats too. |

I did a quick check of Google images and it looks to me like Emhar French would work for the most part, but you may need to do a few head swaps for the officers (most officers could benefit from a head swap, anyways). |

Thanks guys, the Emhar set seems to be easiest way to go here. What about colors, Vallejo Dark Prussian and Prussian Blue for either side? |
