Week 19 of backlog, and here we have four units of Russian Dragoons from the Perry plastic set. You need a lot of cavalry for Russian forces so I've added a bulk lot here, in addition to the previous two Mounted Jager regiments.
I chose to do these without banners, but might add them at a later stage by expanding the unit sizes.
Russian cavalry have some more unusual facing colours compared to France, which tended to go with reds/yellows/oranges/pinks which are complementary colours to the green, so creating the most contrast and visual effect. Russia seems to have just mechanically worked though the rainbow instead, which I was keen to represent. Thus here we have turqoise (greenish blue) for the Kurland Regiment. And another regiment above has a medium blue for the Tver Regiment.
Additionally I went with some more common facing colours that offer a stronger contrast with the green, like this pink for the St Petersburg and Moscow regiments, and the yellow above for the Smolensk and Kinburn regiments.
