1/32 Austrian color comparison pics





 Austrian color comparison.


For 1st pic; (left to right/top to bottom) Italeri Austrian, Replicants Austrian, Accurate 1776 British. I very much favor the color of the Replicants figure for the Austrian infantry.  Unfortunately many producers have chose the cream color (like that of the Italeri figure here).   

While the cream color may be a better representation of the color of the Austrian uniforms when first produced from raw wool, these would in use become much more white from the pipe clay and chalk used to “clean” them, making the Replicants color a much better color use in production of plastic Austrian Fusiliers & Grenadiers.  As can be seen, this share of white plastic better shows the figures details than the bright white of the Accurate figure as well.
