Have I ever told you guys how bad an influence you guys are?
Thank you
Fortunately I don't know what figures might be appropriate.
I've been going by Miller's 'Vanished Armies'; it's focussed on 1907-1914, so a bit later than the C19th setting for VSF, but plenty of wonderful illustrations and ideas for uniforms. The IHMN company I'm finishing off have a uniform which is a bit of a cross between Austrian and French Dragoons, but of course the uniforms don't have to be historically accurate. Besides which it has illustrations of lots of other European nations' uniforms too, a great deal of inspiration.
I've used the Ceremonial Academy Guards from Empress' Mutton Chop Miniatures line for my Austrians - they're being based so I'll post some pics later in the week/at the weekend.
