-passion is: WW1, cavalry, equipment producing

Just being 1910s casual at the stables. Most stuff Just being 1910s casual at the stables. Most stuff here I made myself and I like looking fabulous. And even if it looks civil, just a few things in here are militaystyle. 😉

Because why not, an additional project is now in r Because why not, an additional project is now in research and hopefully soon in the works. Again a #hussar but this time a #russian one, but again from #1915 basically so I am able to #compare the different styles, get an idea how their clothing and equipment works.

It will be the 13th "His Imperial and Royal Majesty William II the emporer of Germany and King of prussia's" Narva Hussar Regiment.

And then bc getting all the German stuff is pretty difficult and takes much more time, than anticipated, so what you gonna do, right?

Today some testing of the #french #cavalry #unifor Today some testing of the #french #cavalry #uniform of 1915, well just the pieces of cloth. There is still a lot to do on the equipment but we get there. What do my French followers say? 😉

So a side project just started: French cavalry 191 So a side project just started: French cavalry 1915/1916. Basically I want to see where the differences in the parts of the #uniforms are, especially considering the #ridingpants or #breeches and how they work on a horse.
Oh and if @barda_du_poilu is able to wear a German uniform, so am I down for a French one. 😉 Or what does @archives_du_grenier think?
At least I got now the jacket, the #greatcoat and the trousers but more stuff will follow.
Until then I am enjoying this and plan the next steps for my prussian hussar as well.

So this year I got a few things just in time for a So this year I got a few things just in time for a side project, which just had to be started just bc reasons. What do you think it might be? So blueish fabric...hmmmmm complicated 
Oh and I did not sew it this time, it is enough with all the German stuff for now.

Really awesome. Have a great second Advent everyone.

Allright, these two came back from the frontlines Allright, these two came back from the frontlines in 1919 and wear partly their civilian stuff and partly some of the uniform parts the soldiers got after they had to leave the army. There is a mix of German and Russian uniformparts as equipment.

In the second picture I have a look at the pocketwatch.

Most of the clothes were made by me, the backpack, which is partly to see, is made by @artelalekseeva and the pictures were made at the @lwl_freilichtmuseumhagen

Just as an rough idea: German Cavalry in Winter 19 Just as an rough idea: German Cavalry in Winter 1915, at least on the horse. 😄 There is not much more to say about that, honesty.

So here is my current state of my project. Of cour So here is my current state of my project. Of course it took far longer than expected but soon it is gonna be finished.
Just a few days of work I think and then it is done and I can move on to the next one.
The wool I used is from @bavaria_loden who just have the best quality (not paid by them btw. 😆)

Another catalogue, which is an awesome source. Thi Another catalogue, which is an awesome source. This time from 1915. Its a great inspiration for equipment and other things, that might be soon on my projectlist.

So now I started to work on my next #project What So now I started to work on my next #project What might it just be? Just let me give you a very very #subtle hint. 😉

Now my goal is to speed up a bit the production time to see how fast I am able to produce that in a good quality.

#ww1german #sewing #cavalry #livinghistory
So I made two pairs of "Hilfspacktaschen" which ar So I made two pairs of "Hilfspacktaschen" which are kind of an educated guess since they are not really clear described in the sources and originals are just so rarely to find.
At least I looked at some pictures, pictures of originals and other bags to get the proper idea.

What you guys think?

Now off to the next project

#cavalry #bag #hussar #ww1german #craftmanship #testing #stepbystep #thefirstworldwar
Since @hessian_landwehr_boi asked yesterday for so Since @hessian_landwehr_boi asked yesterday for some more details about the stuff, that was put into the #saddlebags and the "Hilfspacktaschen", sure here you go. So I clustered it a bit more in order to give a better overview:

Slide 1: Hygiene kit, it would be either the razor blade or the safety razor with additional blades, apart from that Toothbrush, toothpowder, small mirror, towel, travel shaving brush

Slide 2: Iron ration and medical aid, the cavalry units only had one ration of the Iron ration in their saddlebags in contrary to the infantry, so there is the hardtack in a bag, canned meat and vegetables, coffe, salt, a can opener, Ballistol oil for wounds and tools, Salicylcreme, a Russian first aid kit and a private purchase gauze bandage from the pharamacy

Slide 3: a pair of Shoes, a pair of socks, additional hobnails, additional leather lace, a dirt brush, an application brush, a brush to polish the leather and a brush for textiles

Slide 4: shows the textiles, that were a shirt, a pair of underpants, the drillich jacket and field cap

Slide 5: tools and ammunition, so there is an ammobox, matches, a sewing kit for textiles, a sewing kit for leather, an awl, a pair of pliers, a compass and some polished metall for use as signals

Slide 6: paper and a waxed covering, either the soldbuch or the Militärpass was used, the other stayed at an office, a hymn book, a little notebook and a deck of playing cards

Slide 7: some horse stuff, like 2 horseshoes, 8 hoof studs, 16 horseshoenails and a hoofpick.

Well, that is not everything a few things are still missing but not much. Some things need to be refurbished. In total these are either originals or reprodructions according to catalogues from between 1900-1915. A few bags and leather bags still need to be made for some of the pieces.
