French War Commisary American war of Revolution

[dutch]

A friend of mine had this figure somewhere in his stash and he gave it to me. I repainted it into a French war commisary from the American war of Revolution because of a nice picture I found in the John Mollo book of the American Revolution War. I don't know who is the sculptor but is a nice sculpted figure.
Painted in Vallejo colors, scale is 54 mm

Nicely painted Paul.

Michel is correct that this is a Phoenix Models figure of the Georgian period.

This, and all the other Phoenix ranges are still available from S&D Models:-
