Title: Officer Miniatures for Serbian/Croatian Napoleonics
Post by: cardophillipo on 02 March 2024, 08:36:39 PM

I'm currently painting up a unit of Steve Barber Models 28mm Serbian/Croatian Napoleonic Infantry for a Sharp Practice Adriatic project and was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for Officer type figures to use as there is very limited information on what uniform they would have had.

Many Thanks

Are you after more "Ottoman" or "western" style figures? If the former wat about some of the Perry Miniatures Ottoman Napoleonic range? I think the Serbs fought for both the Austro-Hungarian and Ottoman armies during the period.  Certainly Albanians look quite Turkish.

Apologies for the later response chaps. Finally got round to painting up the line infantry from Steve Barber Models. The command figure would be for this unit.

Cheers
