Hi! I've painted a SYW French regiment of cavalry, the regiment of Archiac Cavalerie: link The trumpeter's uniform is conjectural, it is based on the regimental lace (yellow and green braid). What do you think ? I hope you'll like it ! Max |

They've come out nicely, mate. Front Rank figures? Trying to pin down pre-Napoleonic musician uniforms is a pain. The King's blue livery is well known, plus a few regiments whose musicians are in portraits or described. But for the rest it's working out the livery colours of the regiments' commanders- and then guessing how those colours were applied. |

Thanks for your message, yes they're Front Rank's ;-) |

Beautiful work and I do like the work on the trumpeter. |
