Welcome to the Strelets Forum. Please feel free to discuss any aspect of 1/72 scale plastic figures, not simply Strelets. If you have any questions about our products then we will answer them here.
Trying to look for some more info anything online/ to paint these. The Strelets box art is ok but I'm thinking not all hussars wore a blue uniform underneath the greatcoat.
The famous picture of them charging the Thin Red LIne shows afalling officer in a greenish/grey uniform as I recall.
