I like them Olki !
(customs done with just pure PM parts!)
especially the overseas service Redcoat, the overseas service English officer and the Greencoat with breast pockets(who is he supposed to be?)
always happy to see untried/unthought/unseen(by me of course)/'unremembere'  :D ) of combinations.

Hello, Olki ...

I really love your troops in khaki! They look GREAT!

However, there must be a lot of Mounties looking for their "Montana peak" stetsons ... ;)

And, I wouldn't want one of Canada's RCMP looking for me because I stole his hat ...  ;D

All the best,
Richard

Thanks to many fellow collectors, who helped me grow my collection of Mounties, the quartermaster of Fort MacLeod has got plenty of Stetsons, more than there are Mounties on duty...... ;D

That's wonderful that you were able to get so many Stetsons, Olki!

It's really a great hat !!!

I know that the khaki pants and brown boots were used on the Jäger Klicky in set 3741. But, were they also used in any other set?

And the jacket on your Klicky seems to be slightly different from the one used in set 3741.

Please tell us how you made your beautiful khaki Klickys.

All the best,
Richard

Mhh, I didnt notice any difference on the Jaeger jackets....
Well, the Cavalry Troopers (the guys with the jackets ::).....), are just plain Jaegers with epaulettes and belts from the green Park Ranger, or bandoliers.
The other guy is an Infantryman, whose body is plain khaki (I think he´s from one of the older western sets) his belt is from the new Dirct Service Pirates (no partnumber available yet, sorry)

New khaki trousers and brown riding boots can be found at the horse cleaning set, btw.....

Thanks, Olki ...

I don't know why I thought there was a difference. Because when I look at them now, they look the same. Maybe I need new reading glasses ...  ;D

Thanks for the info on the horse cleaning set (4193)!

I´ve been busy doing other things for quite a while, but now there´s been a little time for building some new colonial type soldiers.....
