Personally, I don't it matters which side the musket is on. Soldiers adjust equipment to suit themselves. This is a stunning figure and one that I am sure will be a must have for Napoleonic enthusiasts. I have corrected the error in my previous post. Well done Hugo, it is a beauty.
Cheers

Hugo, can I say huge CONGRATULATIONS, as a French Napoleonic army fan this is stunning and you have produced something outstanding. I hope we can chat again at Euro, if possible please save one for me . Superb my friend and worthy of champagne. I personally think the best kit of the year without doubt, a true vision and different which is good.
Best wishes

Hello Mr. Viking Bob

I ask appollogies for the delay answer...

Im very happy because you liked... This is a special piece to us, because this is the first mounted figure that we did in RPmodels... But there are many things that are new to us... And we have many problems with the information... But we accept the challenge, and the final result is what you can see... We are doing just some corrections .........

Thank you.
With best regards

Hey Nap, I contacted some friends specialist of the revolutionary period (yes the Egyptian expedition is part of this period), among others a person of the Army Museum (Invalides) and another working in SHAA (historical service of armies in France).
I expect answers this weekend, hoping to properly posted their synthesis (correctly transleted) on the subject.

Very nice and interesting piece.

Brilliant, love it , a must have for me
Cheers

Excellent choice to stop and catch the errors.

Not all manufacturers listen to comments.

This is a big figure, it will be very successful.

Napoleonics are not my period of historical interest, so I know from nothing about the discussions about the sabretache or the placement of the musket or the eagle...but it's interesting to read you guys articulating passionately about it.

Way Cool that Hugo gets the listening-to-the-customers thing. Even if he disagrees with the opinion and/or the reference, he still listens.
IMO this makes for happy, involved and most importantly REPEAT customers in any business. And with the figure market so small...

All you other figure makers please take note. The bar just got raised!

All the best,
Dan

hi Hugo

Great work to start...

may I ask you were you found the sabretache on this troops? I checked many documents but they didn't show it.
Non sure that the dromedaries troops didn't have it but Rousselot Rigo and many others don't give the object to this soldier.
In any case the eagle is wrong. Napoleon adopted the eagle as a symbol when became emperor... years later

attached some example of revolutionary sabretache.

another interesting point is the sword... we are speaking on a simple soldier, strange that he can have a mameluke sword. Is more norma that he continue to use his old sword with the classic suspension system
