Anno Domini 1666
Polish dragoons
I’ve painted my first miniatures for this project: the Polish dragoons.
For the colour scheme I found an image of a Polish dragoon from 1683 in Polish Armies 1569 – 1696 (2) from the Men-at-Arms book series from Osprey Publishing. I’ve tried to copy this image as accurately as possible for these miniatures. For the other Polish miniatures I will try to stay close to the look of the dragoons.
The same book mentions king Sobieski’s dragoons were dressed in red. Since Sobieski has a miniature in this game, I assume they are his dragoons in red.
great looking models.
here is some info with great paintings you may find useful.
