Individual images on request - note me.
I'll try and do some more dynamic shots in the future, need some space and a photographer!

***********************************************

1775-1795 Officers Full dress uniform of the 1st Footguards
during the American War of Independence.

Credit where it's due;
Coat + Waistcoat + Breeches + Gaiters - John Anastasio at Stitch In Time (ask me for contacts - this guy also made Simons Uniforms)

Shirt + Garters + Gloves + Gorget + Stockings - Jas Townsend (Google him)

Shoes + Sash - Various ebay sellers

Aguilettes - Company in Pakistan who's name I've forgotten - Sorry!

***********************************************

Left main pic: Poser shot

Top-run: Various full Uniform shots, 2nd from right is a 1795 hat (Other ranks) 1st from Right is a later Bicorne, small, but similar to what the Real General Vyse would have worn in the Dragoons.

Bottom run:
1: General Poser shot
2: Darcy shot
3: Obligatory comedy shot
4: Commando 1775
5: Different lighting

I regret that the furs are real, ww2 Martin furs, there must be six animals in that scarf - they're long dead and it's vintage - it was my grandmothers, so at least they havent gone to waste.

I'm using this as a reference for a drawing. I hope you don't mind, but tell me if you do. The uniform's amazing, by the way

All credit for the uniform should go to John Anastasio who made it, he's a magnificent chap!

I don't know about being a good model, but the coat is superb! I had it made buy a guy near London, John Anastasio

It cost a pretty penny, but definitely worth it.
