This Hungarian Hussar regiment in Austrian service was raised in 1696 and was a very busy unit being involved in campaigns against the Turks, in Italy, in Flanders (it was at Malplaquet), on the Rhine, in Bavaria during the WAS and even, briefly, was stationed on Corsica. During the SYW it participated in the battles of Lobositz, Prague, Kolin, and the raid on Berlin. Thereafter it appears to have been in service with the Reichsarmee.The colour scheme of apple green and blue is rather daring! Figures are Crusader 28mm.
Hi Nigel,
ReplyDeleteOne of the prettiest color schemes for hussars I think I've eve seen. Lovely!
Best Regards,

Very nice work; beautiful colors. Crusader, huh? Wow - they look just like Front Rank - which is what I first thought. Best, Dean
ReplyDeleteThey look great! Really good work!
ReplyDeleteWow! I love these colours. Really good job. :)
ReplyDeleteI just bought the same figures at Hamburger Tactica and also thought of painting the same regiment.
Your post is a real good inspiration for doing so.
