An interesting figure to be sure. I'm not sure about the pistol holsters though.

Hi clrsgt,
Thank you very much for your comment. I had the same doubt when I started to study the figure that I was going to make. Among the many images that I was able to consult was the attached image. You can see it at this address: https://www.pinterest.es/pin/473863192041558965/.However, he could have used an English civilian chair as well.

Certainly a very refreshing take on a well-worn subject. Full marks for originality. Nice one.

Totally agree there ......instantly recognised even without the famous bicorne

As accurate as ever including his horse marking

Thanks for sharing

Hi Oda,
Thank you very much. When making historical miniatures, the rigor must be very high.

Hi Miguel
very interesting and unusual subject. I'll might add this one to my collection plus some other Figures from your offerings. I still have a lack of horses in my collection.

Hi Steve,
Thank you. I'm glad you think it's original. Despite being very well known, Napoleon will still give us a lot to play with.

Hi Nap,
Thank you very much Nap. Your words are always kind. I am glad that the precision and historical rigor are appreciated.

Great and rare (unseen) version of this "confined" Bonaparte.
