This lovely fellow will be accompanied by another on the same base. This outfit will be part of a small French force alongside the Belgian and English Forces.

All the best,

Helen

Here is number 96 (?).  Squeaking in at the last moment, story of my life.

I have been (very gradually) working on some Austro-Hungarians from the Italian campaign of 1917-18.  My great-grandfather was sent to the Piave with the Royal Engineers to help shore up the front after the Italian collapse at Caporetto, so it's a theatre of war I've always been fascinated by.

Here is that scion of Austrian nobility, OberLeut. Carolus Anselm Svetigar, Freiherr von Talus auf dem Skree.  He will command a platoon of the 1st Batt, 2nd Tiroler Kaiserjager regiment.  Alongside him is his faithful hound, Custozza.







Uniform is a mix of pre-war and wartime issue, which along with the brown helmets differentiates them nicely from the otherwise similar German troops.

The basing is supposed to represent the rocky terrain of the Carso Plateau, and is a change from the usual WW1 mud 'n filth.  All my Austrians are Scarab Miniatures, which I enjoy painting very much.

Pictures could have been better, the lighting was terrible today.

Being technically two miniatures, I hope this meets the requirements.  At any rate, the build inspired me to get working on this which means that's another stand completed for my Austro-Hungarians.
