Polish Winged Hussar
For anyone who is interested in Polish Winged Hussar, the book "Husaria The Winged Horsemen " ( ISBN 83-223-2682-3 ) is a worthwhile photo reference. The book is in both Polish and English text and comes with a lot of photos of the armor and weapons used by the Winged Hussar ( shown here with a scan of the page with various helmets. Another book about the subject is the Art in Poland ( ISBN 0-88397-131-3 ) which also contains very nice ( and large photos ) of the Winged Hussar's armor and weapons. And to see the hussars in action, "With Fire and Sword" is also a nice reference too.
Both books helped me a lot in sculpting my 120mm Winged Hussar ( see images below ). The model was sculpted in 1999, material used is Sculpey and took me 3 months to finish the model. It won me a gold medal at the 2000th MMSI's ( Military Miniature Society of Illinois ) Chicago Show.
