Give or take a couple days Paul, yes the overcoat is a very dark blue I mixed up some prussian blue and black to get as close to the right hue I think to be absolute accurate it needs to be even darker according to a reanactor I saw. I have trouble when trying to get accurate info because paintings are artists impression of the color of the uniform and the relics from the past are now faded. even later eras with color film is a bit off because the film did not depict true natural color. ah to have a time machine eh? then we could finally answer many a question with regards uniform dress. Oh and thanks for the comment, 15's are easy to paint if you do just a basic scheme I leave the details to the 1/72 scale. :mrgreen:

Oh and I am on Permanent vacation btw heheheh

For my taste is very nice. The only thing I do not like hats Serbian soldiers, are different. Otherwise it is great.

Cap by the Serbian army had called ŠAJKĆA ... And these caps have had in many armies of the time ...... What are those soldiers we more like a Russian hat that had Tito's forces in WW2 and later in Yugoslavia ...... Otherwise, the Serbian army has received equipment from the French (because the English refused to give) was the only other color ...... Color are hit and so soldiers are trained from the beginning of the war, 1914-15 ....... Most higher commander of the Serbian Army was Zivoin Muscle .......
