Undead Knight


This is a fantasy-ish Perry conversion. I took a foot knight of their English(?) HYW set, and modified it a little. I drilled out the eyeholes and made a dent on the helmet. I took a skeleton arm from a spare skeleton, he's not gonna miss it, and added a GB plastic round shield, making it look a bit battered by, again, carving and drilling through it. The upper part of the surcoat was modelled with green stuff, and the same was done to the joint of the left arm and the body. I also scraped the bottom of the surcoat with a scalpel to make it look torn.

Hungarian hussars


These are Austrian/Hungarian hussars converted from Italeri French ones. Only some trimming on the shakos and adding GS saddle cloth was required.

Nova Hungaria - Civilians


After the military men here are some various figures - mostly conversions - for the dark island.
Left to right:
Alexander Petrof - a mysterious man in the service of the Americans. Gossip tells about him escaping a Siberian camp and sailing to Japan on a row boat. Italeri ACW officer without a sword.
Lord John Flipperton - HM Queen Victoria's officer on leave. ID'd from Plastic Soldier Review as a part of the IMEX ACW infantry set. Had his forage cap removed and a pith helmet added.
Herr Balthasar von Flügernhoffen - a Prussian naval officer. Same set, same treatment.
Lady Margaret - Lord John's wife. Also has a revolver. Caesar Fantasy Adventurers figure with more cloth covering + hat made from green stuff.
Svetlana Ivanova - a Ruslander antagonist, from the Italeri Medieval Tournament lady figure, hat from the Napoleonic French staff, the rest is GS again. Modelled after a certain Prussian princess.

Conversion - Muscovite lancer


The pike is cut off so not a pikeman, a lancer. Zvezda Austrian pikeman's body with a Zvezda Strelets head.




Closer view.


With the original.
