Uniform of the Week (2)

I have been a bit inactive of late due to life and writing a few articles that are quite time consuming so these last to weeks have been a bit sparse in terms of content but I have reached a better time now. The uniform for this week is the Russian Cuirassiers (1812), I am in love with their ridiculous helmets that make these gigantic men appear even taller. I also think the contrast between the black cuirass and the white tunic looks impressive, professional and bold, the red also outlines the black and white nicely. A fine uniform for a very good unit.
