XD Svensson makes the best uniform ever! Pehaps Kilt's for the trousers?  :roll:
If we start making fantasy Napoleonic uniforms, I can just as well post one myself:

(Based partly on 7 Years War Prussian hussars, partly Napoleonic Wuerttemberger Koenig Jaegers, and my own fantasy.)

The 4th Hungarian Huszar Regiment

FACT: Did you know that the standard design of Napoleonic Uniforms were originally from the Magyars (Hungarians)? Since they used it a lot for their soldiers especially their Cavalry considering the Hungarians we're the Horse Lords of Europe. So the rest of Europe thought "OMG this is so good looking!" so they decided to adopt that style. :)

               

The guy in the center is Hungarian Huszar

The standard design of Napoleonic Hussar Uniforms, yes. From the start of the 18th century onwards, till the first world war, the Hussar Uniforms everywhere in Europe were in the old Hungarian style.

First image is the 1700 uniform.
Second one is from the Crimean war, around 1854.

If you dont have a condom, try to pull out early. If this doesnt work, turn it into a legitimate rape, because the female body has ways of shutting that down.
