Very sharp looking figure, a museum piece.

Very nice French soldier. A lot of cool details to take in!

Squidley · 01-24-2022, 12:14 PM

Very well done! Is he mostly custom, or did you have a base to work from?

Hello,

Many thanks for the kind comments, glad you like it.

Squidley,
There are parts from BGT, frock coat was tailored by an spanish modeller, leather gaiters custom made by me, backpack is from Did but totally reworked. It was a challenge to do this one.

If you are in Facebook there is an album with many photos during the building of the figure.
