hussards... one each regiment

[bucsfan21]

Ivo, That is one stunning piece of work you posted! Congrats on the effort! Boy the hussar turned out nicely! Looking forward to seeing additional hussars completed.

You amaze me as you are one prolific painter, modeler! Each piece of work is as good as the prior, if not better!
You are definitely one of our hobby's best! Thanks for sharing!

ok... isn't a joke... the second is of the 1st regiment

Philippe Le Rouvillois has been colonel of the rgt between 1804 and 1806
not a lot of document representing him only Bucquoy represent him mounted
The figure has been converted from Metal Modeles components, the head was originally the head of Friant ( figurinitaly) ith resculpted hair

This is a stunning project Ivo. I'm looking forward to see (perhaps?) Colonel d'Hery of le 5 eme regiment (my personal favorite) and maybe Curely of the 7th ?

I don't know... For sure I will explore also the 5th and the 7th. Do you have any documents relate to d'Hery?

Great stuff as always. Super figures so far. I will enjoy watching you create the collection.

 

[ivopreda]

Be patient ... The complete job will takes years

The third will come soon ... His name ?
Fournier ... to you discover which and when

 

[ivopreda]

nobody try to find the answer?

 

[OldTaff]

Ivo, do you mean that "Beau Sabreur" Fournier- Sarloveze ?

[anstontyke]

Hi Ivo,
Is it the 8th hussars from 1798?
anstontyke

 

[pgarri27]

This guy?

 

[ivopreda]

12 hussards a marengo?

something strange in this answer... seems that you know something more Pier Piero

 

[ivopreda]

I mean Fournier, yes the Beau Sabreur, but not Sarloveze name added after the Empire

here the start...a painting from Hoffman after a sketch done by a genie's officer painted during the 2nd italian campaign



the figure...

 

[Huw63]

A wonder for the eye to behold as ever.

Cheers

This guy?

no, I did this guy many years ago... and was a cover fro the french magazine FIGURINES

 

[OldTaff]

AAHH! That's where I remember it from! The subtlety of your detail work never ceases to amaze me, Ivo. You must have the patience of a saint.
