well true but it's a start.
do look abit like the clowns in the american campain.
i'm sure ppl can come up with better winged hussar looks
It's Chinese.
Looks interesting. I would get it, but I'm more interested in turning the elephants unit into armored bears =]
if someone wants to make a new hussar model:

Yeah - Hussars were an Imperial age unit. Most of the time they used a demi lance and a pistol.... you probablly wouldnt see them with a sword.
The wings are accurate however. No one knows why. I Think it was used as a distraction, or decoration. Some people speculate that the wind over things made a sound that upset enemy horses. I dont think so though.
i know thoses wings were historically accurate, but i m not a specialist, i know they were wearing thoses ones in 1683
anyway i don t know when it was put on armors for the firts time
Adding this polish hussars to the game will be a big historic mistake. They were used by polish dukes only after the end of 16 century so they doesn't get in the SS historic period.
the wings look rather rediculous if I must be honest. But then again, nobles where awfully feminine in the imperial age, a lot of things where rediculous at the time.
this was a heavy cavalry unit from Poland in the 17th century, so not an option for mtwII, see link

The wings did exist, but probably not untill 1700's.
The model in OP looks kinda silly I think, but the idea is good.
no i didnt ake it it's from another modejust kinda like the idea,
adding this to M2TW is like adding red coats to england
