Oh and incase you might forget or might save time or dont have to worry for the Coat thing on the Their uniforms the Great coat was it? I dont quite know the name but you can use it from the Prussian soldier from NW for the Coat thing on their uniforms And incase,DONT forget about chinstraps
I updated my B&I Prussian hats to Having chinstraps since i think they dont fit Cause many modder seem to have not been thinking that matter but I think chinstraps Matter's  Anyway Good luck!

The Prussian hats in B&I all have chin straps, they're just resting on the hat.

Update #1

New Weapons
Most of the planned guns are now done, they just need some minor touch ups, so i will probably move on to swords after this. other guns might also be added in the future btw.

Help is still needed, so please reply if you can help

Do you know how to UV map them? It's best to do it as you go along.

Sadly seeing the prussian resting their chinstrap was the thing i was sad of since from all pictures of every franco prussian war i see they used chinstrap like in your signature there So yeah i would make them look alike The pictures the thing i update was Adding chinstrap to be useable so i kind of remove the chinstrap that was being rested and make them useable

Most of my sources have them with the strap up, it's also easier to model it that way.

Ive tried it but never managed to get it to work. The texture didnt fit in the box and there were lots of small bits that didnt seem to fit

Here's some from me:

Name for the mod: Eagle and Chrysanthemum

The Russian Regiments:

Infantry:

85y Viborgskiy Pehotniy Polk (85th Viborg Infantry Regiment)
135y Morshanskiy Pehotniy Polk (135th Morshan Infantry Regiment)
215y Buzulukskiy Pehotniy Polk (215th Buzuluk Infantry Regiment)
281y Drisskiy Pehotniy Polk (281st Driss Infantry Regiment)
184y Warshavskiy Pehotniy Polk (184th Warsaw Infantry Regiment) (O_o Polish regiment i found in archives, Baktech will problably have butthurt :))

Skirmishers:
11y Vostochno-Sibirskiy Strelkoviy Polk (11th East-Siberia Rifles)
Svodniy Polskiy Strelkoviy Batalion (Polish Combined Rifle Batalion) (Baktech will die, probably)
21ya Brigada Pogranichnih Strazhey (21th Brigade of Border Watchmen)
Kvantunuskiy Morskoy Ekipazh (Kvantun Navy Company)

Cavalry:
Primorskiy Dragunskiy Polk (Primorskiy Dragoon Regiment)
51y Chernigovskiy Dragunskiy Polk (51st Chernigov Dragoon Regiment)
52y Nezhinskiy Dragunskiy Polk (52nd Nezhin Dragoon Regiment
Zabaikalskiy Kazachiy Polk (Zabaikalskiy Cossacks)


Special:
General-Lieutenant Dembovskiy, commander of 4th Siberian Army Corps
Sibirskiy Saperniy Batalion (Siberian Sapper Battalion)
Sibirskiy Artileriyskiy Divizion (Siberian Artillry Division)

The whole situation was like *shit, where we are, is there war out here?* Yes, the russian regiments were formed, and extra-pextra-quickly sent to a war and becuase of this almost all regiments didnt receive equipment, because Russia didnt field big army storages on that war theatre, yeah that sucks too much.  :D

This list isnt final, and dont have screens (for now) i'll work hard on archives to find something out :)

You don't just mess around and expect it to work. Go read some tutorials, there are tons on the Blender website, it's not difficult to learn. I would make that a priority, all these models are pointless until they can be textured.

I didnt exactly mess around, but i cant say i put much time into it either. I watched one tutorial but will definitely try watch some more to atleast be able to export the textures

The best beginner way is to select each sort of big side of the model and UV map from view, the view being straight on. Then you will have nice big areas you can texture.
