Description I don't know why but I wanted to draw one, even though I had no idea what the true meaning to dragoon was so had to look it up.

i.e. name originally came from a early firearm called 'dragon' however developed to mean mounted/mobile guys with guns

My man above is not on a horse but he got there on one, he picked a hill top with his dragoon pals and got off for a better shot.

This is a sketch later colored in Manga Studio, inspired by a set of polish films 'the Jerzy Hoffman trilogy'.

Badass dragoon haha!

Polish dragoons were mainly feet infantry tho, they used horses sometimes but I haven't heard of them using horses in an actuall battle, rather just to get to the battleground
