1/72 1898 Buffalo Soldiers
Date: March 30, 2010.
Hi:
Attached are some pictures about new conversion-work. They are 1898 "Buffalo Soldiers" of the 9th US cavalry in field dress.
All men, black and white officers, engaged in fierce fights against Spanish troops, the exploits of these men was ignored for the influential press following the racism of these years.
As usual it are conversions figures from the Hat range:
WWI Turks infantry.
WWI Russian infantry.
The white officer from the WWI German heavy weapons.
The corporal guidon bearer from the Napoleonic Bavarian infantry.
The wounded men from the old Airfix WWI British artillery reissues for hat.
Cheers, saludos para todos.

Many thanks to Mr. Juan Carlos Pascual.
