Completed French Napoleonic soldier 75mm

[Viking Bob]

This is the First Legion 75mm soldier of the period 1800-06. I am going to stick my neck and and say the Army in Italy, about 1805-6.
This was a taxing figure to paint and being metal was heavy (got use to resin). I am pleased with the result though and well worth the bath in dettol early on.
So here you have it, an infantry soldier from the Army of Italy 1805-6 on campaign.

Great stuff, Bob, he's come out very nicely Mine is still in the " Coo, that's a nice fit " stage. I like the way the accoutrements pegs go all the way through, anchoring everything together

Cheers Alan,
Every thing fits very snug, making you think before painting and adding bits and pieces as a dry fit to see where you can get a brush.
