Well done Mike, I can clearly see how much you enjoyed this one. It seems to really show through.

If I was going to make any observations, it would only be around the choice of base. In that respect this is a tricky figure to deal with due to it's overall height. Not that your choice is a bad one or anything. May I assume this is an aspect you wrestled with a bit?

Love it.

Many thanks for looking and your kind words...the figure does come with a pre-cast sloping resin base...as I think the sculptor intended him to be walking down a slight incline...I did embellish it with the addition of a tree trunk......the old black base was a stock bit I had... many thanks regards, Mike

Very nicely painted, and most 'chillingly' presented.

Cheers,

One of those figures that catches the eye and has you looking at it over and over again, expertly painted and presented.

Mike, Nice job on the cold French Grenadier. I like the additions you made to the figure and the snow effect. Really gives the feeling of cold weather and the hardship the French Army faced on their Retreat from Moscow.
Thanks for sharing.
