Hi to all! Here's another edit to a piece of "Metal Modeles". This time I enjoyed making an "Officier des Chasseur de montagne", in particular the Captain Jean Baptiste de Roquemaurel. Born in 1771 in France, de Roquemaurel was first lieutenant of the Infantry Regiment of Dauphinè, then an officer of Hussars and finally "Mountain hunters Officer" in Spain, where he was soon nicknamed "the terror of the Spanish" and "Hombre del Demonio"... He was engaged in Spain from 1808 to 1810, and was marked in many counter-insurgency operations against rebels.
I hope you post soon pictures of the finished piece!
