First of his commercial figure, for me extremelly well sculpted, Vitalino CHITAS choose a french Chasseurs during the Crimean War 1854-56
A light brown/yellow resin with no default.
Instruction, with history and photos of 3 sides figure (not really helpfull) and the medal.
Better and bigger photos :

In conclusion a very good figure, highly recommended and a change from the classics English soldier of this war.
Make your own opinion with the attached files photos.
For documentaion look also :

You can choose also to make a French Chasseur in Italy (Magenta, Solferino...)
You could add medals in this case (Legion d'honneur, Médaille militaire, Crimean British campaign in this order the CBC after the Siège de Rome medal Campaign he is wearing).
I also add somes pictures including original era photos (including Imperial Guard Chasseur)

Nice sculpt and subject. A good painter could do some wonderfuol work on this. Great that you have added so much detail, if only more manufacturers would do this.
Very nice indeed
