As shown in the picture below, the coats of IR 3 Anhalt had no lapels and two rows of buttons, officers 12 gilt buttons on each side. A Foundry Prussian Officer came close, but - besides being already fully painted as Johann Diedrich von Hülsen - had tassels instead of buttons.

Time to expand the skill set and to learn how to use Greenstuff, which I have never used so far.
I took a Russian General from Foundry (pack SYWR031) and gave him the prussian Ringkragen (gorget) and the necessary buttons. The left side of his coat had none and the right side too few. Fiddly stuff! But I prevailed and am quite happy with the result:

| Russian General with added prussian gorget and buttons to coat and cuffs. |
I also added a sword to a Front Rank Prussian Officer, intended to be the commander of IR 9 Quadt. Originally, he just points with his finger. Not appropriate when leading your men in to battle, I think.
