Think it is on time to begin with warpaintings again, it is always inspiring.
Here are one from the Napoleonic era depicting two hussars reciving orders.

Thanks everybody, yes I look very nice in my uniform dont I? LOL
You are a real Sherlock Holmes Kos, yes it is the best site on the tragic Swedish-Russo war 1808-1809 and I'll soon translate another poeom about this war and put a picture to it too. The tall dark man with the black band around his head is Döbeln, one of the bravest military commanders Sweden ever have had. He had a hot temperament. It is told that during one battle his Aidé Erling got shot and blood sprinkled all over Döbeln's coat. When he got asked whos blood it was he answered - it's Erlings brain, he lost his head while he rode alongside me.
