I have doubts about using Eagle. obviously can not be the imperial

hat under the cartridge belt can not stay in that position, but you can easily correct. He was firmly tied to the center.


It is still quite impressive piece

Hi Guys ,

The plate is ofcourse Rousellot , so although yes artists made errors ...bit unusual for him but ...seems strange such an artist has depicted the musket on the left side ........did he have a reference when it was done ?

Saying that I am assuming the musket is seperately cast so you could move it to right ( if I do I will also put the musket with the barrel facing up by cutting and reversing

The cuffs are easy to do as well but perhaps our trooper was an ex hussar and kept his uniform ?

Sabretasche easy to just sand back and detail up the back which is what I will look at doing

The piece has great movement throughout and thst camel looks mean!

I am itching to see this and as a bust of course !

Hi Jai ,

Not sure what you mean about hat ...."firmly tied to centre" ?

I presume you feel the eagle is not correct but should be the design as in Vitalino post showing the flag emblem

sorry I do not speak English.

here is a photo

the straps holding tightly closed hat in the center.
the cartridge belt.

He can not "fly" as in sculpture.

The eagle was the first thing I saw wrong ... I waited before writing to see if others noticed the error.

Hello Mr. Paul

Thank you for your comment... Im very happy because you liked...

We before strating the details of the figures, we submit the figures at a Software Moviment... And when we did this test, we are faced with an interlocking boom in weapon, when the spear penetrates teh enemy´s body... That is when the spear penetrates the enemy´s body, moves into the military, and knocks teh gun, making it impossible for the military to remove the spear of the enemy, and we dont have the moviment dexterity... And if you want to move for the other side, there are no problem, because the rifle can go to other side...

For us the accuracy is very important... And in this moment we are trying to grow up and be better... So we have the look to everthing... Has a professor told me in the past... 'It was in the details where the difference is'...

I hope I can help...

Thank you for everthing...

With best regards

Oh my. A beautiful sculpt. I must agree that the sabretache is too thick and the use of the imperial eagles is wrong. Personally I would prefer the bicorne rather than the shako, but that is a personal whim. I fully intend to order one the 75mm versions as soon as it is available. Any guess as to when will that be?

Hello Mr. Jai

In first place I want to express my gratitute to your comment... You are very kind...

About the details of 3D arent good... I can have the same opinion that you Sir... My appollogies... The details with 3D are very good and very detailed... In my opinion, of course, the details that we put in our fiogures are very good, and like some people says... They are impressive... We dont are better than no one... Has matter the fact, we are very small... But we are RPmodels... And we have our convictions, ideas and believes, and we put a big detail and textures in our figures....

About the weapon... You can change the place were we put the weapon... But, before we lauch a figure we do some tests in a Softwaire Moviment, just to check if everthing is alright and to confirm the anatomy... If its proporcional with the pose... When you put the rifle in the other side, and when we put our soldier in fight with the enemy, the lance sometimes are stuck with weapon... And we decided to put in the other side... But you can change, there are no problem with that...

Thank you Sir... And thank you for believe in us...

With best regards

Hello Vitalino...

Thank you for the comment...

About the weapon I already explain why we put in the left, but you can put in right side... There are no problem...

About the sabretach there are no good references about the period... And I have to talk with a TCol expert in Napoleon Armies, and they told us... To put the eagle... there are no refernces about that... And was you can see, the paint arent enough good... And the information is very 'empty', so we put the eagle, and I dont see why is wrong, but you can change, because your skills are very, but very good...

And like NAP said, the important is enjoy the figure and paint... I hope see one them paint by you...

Thank you for your friendship and support...
Big ugg and take care...
Hugo
