Dragoner-Regiment Nr. 2 (1. Westpreußisches Dragoner-Regiment)

The Soon Dragoons are ready to make their entrance, so without further ado, here they are:

And here they are again brigaded with the Garde du Corps. You can see why I thought they'd need a flag.

The figures are Hinton Hunt PN81: Dragoon, charging, x12. Nine of them are vintage castings (of which one, whose sword had broken off entirely, is now the trumpeter), and three (the officer, standard bearer and one of the troopers) are recasts.

I think I'm going to need at least one more Prussian heavy cavalry regiment to round off Phase 2. The question is: should they be line cuirassiers, or more dragoons? I think either would look rather dashing

I have a wee backlog of generals and whatnot to work through first, however, so I'll have plenty of time to think about it.

The Soon Dragoons have turned into the Drag On Dragoons, I'm afraid. The good news, however, is that they are very nearly finished.

Herewith is their standard bearer, who gave me no end of trouble:

He was worth it though, I think, as I was able to sneak a little bit of pink into the regiment after all.

All being well, they should be ready fot their proper photo shoot at the weekend.

Best wishes,
WM
