Krakus & divisional command

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr f*cking google and their plans for world domination. I bit the bullet and added the pictures to Picassa.

Please see the Krakus ( you need 3,000+ of these for 1813-14!!!) and Polish divisional command.

 Officer and standard bearer
 Krakus 1
 ADC & General de Division
 There have been some comments about the size of the horses due to one quote from Napoleon about them being "pygmies" before Bautzen. Well, all I can say is that the plates I've seen show Krakus uniformed and on light cavalry horses.  Due to their success as battle cavalry I would assume there were differnces between "peasant"" troops who brough their own ponies and those who were mounted in line horses.
 I've gone with the line horses and I am happy with the result.
 General and ADC



Hope you like them; they are available from me now. Uhlan's should be ready before too long.
