Polish Mounted Commanders
/Following on from my "Don't Forget the Officers" post, below, here are three mounted commanders for my WW2 Polish cavalry:
These are not actually Polish officers at all, but the remainder of the German mounted command pack from Peter Pig with a head swap into rogatywkas.
You can't see it very well from this angle, but the headgear they are wearing aren't peaked caps but rogatywkas: from the other side, they have a lovely mortarboard like flat surface that makes them quite distinctive.
The head swaps are, of course, because Peter Pig doesn't do a Polish range (but maybe they should, eh?) and I didn't want to buy an entire company of cavalry from either Battlefront or FiB just to get a few commanders.
Head swapping, btw, is really easy. All you need is a pair of clippers and a pin drill...oh, and some new heads from Peter Pig. Just snip the old head off, drill a hole where you want the neck to be, glue in the new head. It really is that simple.
Here's the two figures together:
