40mm: Janissary for the Wittenberg Friekorps (WIP)

Something a little different.. 

I had a spare slot in a mould in my 17C sculpt and cast project, so I thought I would make up a janissary similar to those in the army of Saxony in early 1730's. The figure is modelled so that with adaption it could be modified to make one from the 17C



The Boritzy Friekorps will get a battalion of these chaps, when I've got the mould made :)
