Italian Conscript of the Guard

Here's the first test figure for the Italian Conscripts of the Guard using the HaT French Chasseurs sets. 

Everything turned out fine, except for the shoulder tabs. I realised too late that the Conscripts of the Guard had the same kit as a regular legere infantryman EXCEPT for the epaulets! I've opted to just paint over them rather than try to trim them, on this figure at least. Getting a knife around his shoulders, in this pose particularly, wasn't very appealing. The other (non-firing) poses might lend themselves to a little judicious knife-work, but this chap has survived with shoulders intact!
