I have never painted a figure of Napoleon but may do this one.

Édouard Detaille

...Box art by Francesco Sapienza.

The uniform of a General de Division of the French Republic, which Bonaparte carried at Marengo, has been preserved and kept at the Musèe de l'Armée in Paris.

Here his original hat ...:



And here an exact copy of the original uniform ...:

A lovely sculpt, one for the GA I notice that Detaille's painting has the bicorne settled lower on the brow than the figure, but I'm sure this can be rectified.

Agreed it's a lovely figure but I don't see much of a facial resemblance to Napoleon. (Perhaps it's the size of the photo.)

Jeff

The master is better placed in the hat

Grazie, Jai. That's a lot better. A decent resemblance after all.

Do not mention it

Looking forward to this one when it is released.
