Mosana's custom torsos

[Mosana]

The Mamelukes' uniform was red trousers, a sort of red fez with a white turban around it, like Zouaves would later wear, a shirt of red, green, yellow or blue, and a waistcoat of red or yellow above it, and a blue sash above that. They carried scimitars and pistols. Although you used a brown head for your Roustam, most Mamelukes were from metropolitan France, especially later on when the number of Egyptians thinned out.

Little update:

Napoleon in his "other" uniform

[El Bucanero]

You must be the Pirate torso master of this forum!

Brilliant torsos!

This thread comletly flew over my head! The torsos are reaally beautiful!

Keep it up!

Spain:

Note: Spain played a fairly minor role in the Peninsula, so, unless people want anything else, I'm going to touch on it very lightly. This also applies for Portugal, which is coming up next.

Coming next: Portugese Cazadores, Prussian cavalry for Jena-Austerdt

[Fordo]

Do you think you could make a torso for Czar Alexander for my Russian Army? If you need reference photo's I'll try and find some. By the way those are nice Spanish decals, maybe after I finish Prussia, Russia, Austria, and GB I'll do a Smaller Spain+Portugal army.

I'll get on it in a few days.

I have all the reference material I need.

UPDATE: by "a few days" I meant "a few minutes"

Czar Alexander I:

Edited June 7, 2007 by Mosana

[Mosana]

The Cazadores were Portugal's equivalent of the Rifles, and distinguished themselves in many battles.

Trooper:

Officer:

Now, I did say I'd be doing cavalry for Jena next, but I'm finding it difficult to get information on this subject, so I'm leaving it for the moment. Aside from this, this is the Napoleonic wars finished, really.

Coming next: French Foreign Legion

[Bonaparte]

I have printed some more torso's and applied them on some figs.

During the weekend I'll print the Czar Alexander I fig and take some pictures.

[Mosana]

I look forward to seeing them.

[Fordo]

Thanks for the awsome decal as usual. I've already decaled 80 prussian's now I need to order some supplies for then and then I'll post pictures. Will you be doing some Austrian's or Ottoman's?

[Mosana]

Woody64's already done some Austrians. I wanted to do some Ottomans, but I currently don't have enough information. But I'll get back to them later.

French Foreign Legion

Trooper:

Junior officer:

Senior officer:

Zouave:

Turco:

Coming next: Maybe Franco-Prussian war. I need some ideas.

[Bonaparte]

The Trooper, Zouave and Turco look great!

Can you put some dates on those uniforms?

Coming next: Maybe Franco-Prussian war. I need some ideas.

Do we already have a French Marshal uniform?

Did the marshals of Napoleon have something like a standard uniform?

Here's Marshal Louis Alexandre Berthier in his uniform:

Marshal Andr

[Mosana]

Zouave uniform really didn't change much when it was used, and so the Zouave and Turco uniforms are suitable for the mid-1840s up to the start of WW1. The other bodies are "classic" FFL uniforms for North Africa, and date from 1870 to some point in the early 20th century.

EDIT: I'll do some marshals next. That picture is an odd one, for every source I have says marshals wore blue. I'll do a generic marshal body, and some specific ones for Poniatowski, Murat and anyone else who deviated noticeably from the standard uniform.

EDIT TWO: Here are some periods I know enough about to cover; what would people like?:

American Civil War

Franco-Prussian War

Crimean War

Seven Years' War (or French and Indian War for you Americans)

American Revolutionary War

Great Northern War

Italian Wars of Independence

British colonial wars

Boxer Rebellion

[Fordo]

How bout a Marshal Davout, since I consider him the most important of the Marshal's. Franco-Prussian War and the American Revolution would be nice.

I prefer the British colonial wars!

Are these the uniforms you have in mind?

[Mosana]

Indeed they are, as well as khaki versions for Omdurman and the Boer War.

Coming next:British colonial troops. I'll be doing regular soldiers, officers, cavalry and artillery in red and tan, also sepoys, bengal lancers, australian cavalry and some other things. I'll also take requests.

[WesternOutlaw]

Sure you can. I'll get it done soon enough.

More Mexicans:

Officer 3:

The colour used on these figures is dark blue.

Coming next: Nelson, Russians

Mosana: thanks for designing these outstanding torsos. I have to apologize becuase I had almost forgot about this thread as I don't visit the Pirate Forum very often.

[Fordo]

Nice, Marshal torso's I'll be sure to print them out soon and put them on some figs.

[Fordo]

Cool, nice job on this batch. Eventhough I'm not doing the Colonial Wars I'll probably still print a few out.

[Bonaparte]

I haven't seen many users that are only a member for less than a month get a title on this forum.

But in your case an exception was needed! From now on you are our Chief Torso Designer!!!

[Mosana]

I have just one body for you all. The East India Company soldiers simply wore red coats, and so can be represented by standard redcoat bodies.

Sepoy:

Coming next:Perhaps American Revolutionary War
