I would love to take the credit for the idea but I can't. Although the original idea involved using warlord Soviets plastics cut roughly at the base of the tunic and just the legs from the perry ACW cavalry stuck on. I used the full Perry plastic body with the detail stripped away and then rebuilt from Greenstuff, topped off with a BA soviet head stuck on to finish it off. The horses saddle bags are plastic card with Greenstuff detail, it all seems to have come together nicely.

I'm working on converting some warlord British to crew a couple of half tracks so should be done soonish.
