Open Book Thanks To Santa Claus, Alexandros & Ebroin

[Zastrow.cuirassier]

I was very happy for Xmas
Several figurines under my Christmas tree...
I would soon show you the others.
But at first by ALEXANDROS MODELS, sculptured by EBROIN, " Maréchal Ney, Le Brave des Braves, 1812 "

Inspired by the picture of this one in the battle of Bérézina.​

Painter Adolphe Yvon 1817/1893 (Manchester Art Gallery)
A magnificent Figurine, EBROIN is really a big sculptor, he really goes into the club of the best.His work is sublime, with an amazing artistic quality
The molding is of very very good quality, in metal, a little as that of the PEGASO, not still the perfection of METAL MODELES, but really magnificent.

Unfortunately I am not a big photographer, thus saddened for the bad quality of photos.
But if you like 75mm Napoleonics, it's a must have !!
Thank to EL GRECO, to my VISA CARD, my Bank manager...And also thanks to my wife who supports that I buy what is for her one catches dust.

Probably one of the best 75mm figures of the year in my opinion... Great stance, great sculpt, beautifull art box...
I almost bought it yesterday, but went for an old love but it is in my list!

Very nice looking mini, I didnt realise it had so many parts though.

 

[RFL]

That`s a very nice casting and a good likness of Le Rougeaud.

I might rotate the right hand down a bit, put part of a torn flag in it, or even replace it.

 

[Aveleira]

Noticed one thing...The kit includes the rifle strap?? I don't see it in the photos.

In my box i do not have the rifle Strap.

 

[Aveleira]

hum ok...just curious... I think it should be part of the kit, since every rifle had a strap.

 

[Zastrow.cuirassier]

I checked my box, and you right, and all my apologises, here's a rifle strap.

 

[Aveleira]

I checked my box, and you right, and all my apologises, here's a rifle strap.

There is nothing to apologise, I just think that if there wasn't a strap it would be a fail from the company. But it's good that isn't so
