Ooo yeah! This is a brilliant addition to the expanding Napoleonic cavalry at rest 'series'. Gorgeous figures too and more of those wonderful civilians. Uhlan/lancer uniforms being so similar they'll have plenty of conversion potential, for those who like to 'dabble'.
Being limp and falling, the flag does not seem that far out; 800 mm x 800 mm for the ordinar standard and 800 mm x 600 mm for the leib (based on my check of Rawkins' excellent compilation of the subject). That is around 10–11 mm at our scale (8 mm for the vertical of the smaller leib—I am pretty sure that he states the fly first). If our sitting fellow is around 22 mm high (perhaps including up to half of the plume to take account of the rounded legs, in an 'eye-balling' measurement?), then...
What will be next in this 'series', Austrian Hussars? I hope so.
Thanks once more Strelets. As you said 'Murat', the sculptors are working overtime!

p.s. Or, perhaps some like the one at the right of this image, Murat?! :grinning:

Didn't I say that I wouldn't mention camels.
But, I loved to have some of those chaps on the right.🤔
