WIttenberg Grenadiers (40mm)

I used some spare Prince August castings (a couple have been converted) to try out the uniform scheme for my Wittenland corps units. The main thing was to try the buff cartidge pouch belts on the white uniforms, which seems to have worked reasonably well.

Indeed they look good.

Now, grenadiers in white uniforms but with Prussian-like mitres: 'original' Wittenlanders, reflections of some historical prototypes, or merely an isolated test of colors?
Just curious,

uniforms are based on four of regiments of the Duchy of Saxony in the early 1740's.
