Title: 1672 Dragoons in Fur Hats - Painting Options
Post by: Orctrader on 14 January 2017, 10:08:25 PM

Bought some dragoons in the Northstar sale - their 1672 range.  In the photo they were in broad brimmed hats, but the figures I received are wearing fur hats.

Now I'm looking for some painting guides/suggestions.  Any dragoon regiment of any nation from that period that wore fur hats.

Many, if not most of the French dragoons in the period wore fur caps. Sorry don't have my guides to hand.
