    Just finished this 90mm Tercio (an EMI brand) officer of the Garde d'Honneur of the Royal Italian Guard c. 1812. This small unit was the elite of Napoleon's Italian Guard, doing palace guard duty and field security for both him and for Eugene, the Viceroy. They were also not spared action in the field.

    This officer is the commander of the Brescia company, one of 5 company-sized elements in the corps.

    Painted in various acrylics and inks. The carpet was hand painted and I added an epaulette and a Chevalier of the Order of the Iron Crown medal. Nice figure and a lot of fun to paint.
