Hello, here are a couple of pics of my latest figure.

I was inspired by a scratchbuilt figure of a similar subject by Jerry Hutter - I really liked the faded blueish-violet tone of the jacket, so I tried to create a similar colour. I used Osprey's Napoleon's Line Infantry for reference, but it's hard to know exactly what colours the Demi Brigade regiments wore in Egypt..

It's painted in acrylics. The section of wall was made with A+B putty and plasticard. Hope you like it.

Excellent work Edward.

Marc

You have done a lovely job on this , Edward, great tones. I would imagine the various colours would have faded out quite severely under the Egyptian sun, so I don't think anyone can query your palette !

Alan

That's lovely painting Edward.
Great setting too and is clearly in Egypt. Napoleon's army in Egypt wore some very colourful and interesting uniforms.

Lovely work Edward.

Cheers

Not the best figure from BL, but your work is really beautiful !
And if you are looking for inspiration for a figurine of the Egyptian campaign

Super fine and clear painting. Great work.

Wow Edward, thats some painting, the tone's are superb and the wall is some thing else.
Wish it were mine.
Regards

Lovely work Edward, great idea and a nice composition.

And a very nice bit of scenic basework too.

Very nice - the painting is lovely and the walker ally sets the scene.

Lovely piece and beautiful paintjob, I like the Nap uniforms from Egypt :-D

Just a detail, for French people the egypt campaign is BONAPARTE's period, not Napoleon, this period began december 1804

Interesting to know, and thanks for the picture.

Edward, Nice job on the Metal Models figure. Egyptian Campaign one of my favorites. Nice touch on adding the wall!

Very crisp piece of painting Edward - I like the idea of the faded blue which adds a different look to the familiar 'French' blue

Thanks Paul. The coat is a blueish-violet. It actually looks a bit more violet in the flesh.

Lovely rendition of this Figurines BL figure and nice to see it in a new colour - I've seen it in red. crimson etc.

Cheers

Very nice and clean painting.
