    Dear Planeteers!

    My friend Heinz from Austria has started to sculpt another bust for me.

    It will be a Don Cossack, fighting with his lance on horseback, similar like that...:

    [IMG]

    The bust will be in scale 1/10 and even from the horse there will only a part to be seen...

    For this bust I researched all the Details of uniform, weapons and Equipment of an Don Cossack in the summer of the year 1914...:
