Perry Choson Korean Officers

These will be commanders for the two hwacha units. The governor of Pusan, Chong Pal, was known to have worn a set of black armor when the Japanese attacked the port. He is said to have fought bravely before being killed by arquebuse fire
 
Choson Korean armor seems to have been worn mainly by commanders, and appears to be more cumbersome than what the Japanese wore.

    Thanks a lot for the comments, Gents.

    Ben: I have done some of the Perry samurai already - not many, just a unit of foot and several mounted - I have mostly Old Glory for my samurai army.

    Best, Dean

    Fantastic figures, Dean - and by the way a tremendous painting speed (at least when compared to my a-figure-a-month - style... Great! Take care, Tobi

    The Perrys really have captured the look and feel of the range. Best, Dean
