Intro post

hiii!!

I draw napoleonic related stuff, mostly historical figures and types of cavalry/ infantry but I do on occasion draw less war related things!

Oh also a disclaimer: I obviously don’t have any intention to glorify the actions of the people I draw, more or less the majority of Napoleonic figures did something or were complicit in something immoral so I would like to make that clear.

My interests are mainly late 18th/19th century warfare but I also am interested in the cold war and aircraft (post ww2), as well as old books :)

I also have a tiktok which is the same user

Hehe thank you for reading goodbye 🙂‍↕️

(Also ignore xbonji she’s just like that idk 😔)

Happy pride month to every single lgbtq+ person apart from James VI/I. You know what you did James. Never get reincarnated or write again stay permanently DEAD. Hope you’re having a terrible afterlife.

happy pride! remember that being a transgender is everything but fiction. there are so many real historical figures from every century about whose transgenderism we aren't even aware of

on this picture i drew Alexandr Andreevich Alexandrov - cavalry officer of the russian imperial army that participated in napoleonic wars. people persistently keep on misgendering mispronounsing deadnaming and calling him a crossdresser although alexandrov clearly stated that he didn't want to be called by his deadname and being treated like anything but a man. that's an interesting historical figure and i wanted to draw attention to his person. i can't tell everything about him in only one post so i recomend you to read about alexandrov by yourself

also be proud of yourself and remember that you're valid! 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

Another set of reference images: Today's edition:

From various resources on the internet - paintings, etc. Mostly of the *fency* (lol) type - the buckled shoes from 1750 onward. Note they are mostly straight-lasted- that means you could put your shoes on in the fireakin dark and not worry which foot you had them on. However - this was not entirely the case.

An awesome blog on the subject!
