That is exceptional painting. Your painting skills and the fantastic sculpt from Gringo40 complement each other beautifully. Very well done. I like that very much. |

Murat will be the first figure from our New Napoleonic range with a slightly different take on the momemntous events of 1815! regards Ged gringo40s.com

I'd love this Murat Figure…but would be too embarrassed to order one figure from you, to send to UK! Really look forward to seeing more of this quality……. |

Well done – very nice paint job. Also tells me where to go to obtain a decent model for this character |

What an incredible figure – and doesn't it paint up well? I've only got a few personalities in my army, but this is one i must get, not just because it's a great figure, but there's the challenge to paint it as well as it deserves. Another great figure Ged, and I hope this means you'll be doing a range of Napoleonic figures to accompany Murat – we can't have him all on his own can we!!!? I look forward to news about about a future range. Best Wishes davejl |

I was just browsing the various posts and found this. The painting is stunning for a 28mm. Congratulations. The sculpt on the figure, especially the head, is similarly outstanding. Well done. Are you planning to produce more personality figures within the Napoleonic series? Kind regards John |
| jammy four | 05 Dec 2013 1:34 p.m. PST |
John appreciate the kind comments i do indeed mean to have other
fascinating Napoleonic personalites sculpted…the wants list is long as you may well imagine!! regards

It must be murder to get started in this market. The snag must be that no one will want two Murats, however wonderful your work. You may sell to lots of individual enthusiasts, one figure each. Produce a Frenchman with his musket held against his side trudging along, or a British infantryman firing his piece, and you'll sell hundreds…except they have been done to death. Unless you come up with a new pose, that appeals to the wargamers, who buy figures en masse….. So try the minority interest, the trumpeter of the train, the Prussian medics as in Westfalia….but you will still not rival the profits of Microsoft or Facebook and make your fortune. Really look forward to seeing the range expanded. Ordering one figure does seem a bit odd! Now, the day you do Gendarmes d'Elite or 2nd Eclaireurs of the Guard, that is different! |
| jammy four | 06 Dec 2013 3:02 a.m. PST |
Deadhead thanks for your support and interesting comments as i summise a fellow Napoleonic buff the market is indeed flooded
with French line infantry at March attack pose but believe
me there is still room to manoeuvre!!..i have a swathe of releases in the pipeline!!
are you the man who recreated Napoleons Carriage? if so top work.
im sure you will be pleasantly suprised at the next release regards

Well thanks for that! Much appreciated; first time I ever posted anything on this forum, actually. I must do some better photos of the Berline, especially now that I have just received the postal coach from Westfalia. It is beautiful and their postillion is infinitely better than my conversions from Perry Dragoons. Must get assembling and painting! If you future releases are of this standard, you should prove very popular (certainly with me) |

Oh yeah baby! That's a groovy Murat and no mistake…….. Do you have a UK outlet/agent? Postage and VAT taxes make it a tough buy from USA. |

Go for it, you can never have enough Murats. There are so many different uniforms to choose from. Recieved here in the States in seven days, will order again. One of the best sculpts and casting in any scale. |
| jammy four | 30 Dec 2013 7:29 a.m. PST |
…..its looking good on the Yes front!
Jebb33 glad you liked the figure…as a favourite
character of the Napoleonic Wars i had to get a Joachim
sculpted!!
im looking at some of his other uniforms…he took 50
to Russia along with pots of facial mayonnaise!! regards

Oh come on! Give us a clue…leave us salivating at the prospect of Lasalle, Marbot, Eugene de B, a Gendarme d'Elite (fat chance)…….just a hint to keep us keen ? |
| jammy four | 28 Jan 2014 5:58 p.m. PST |
Deadhead to give you a clue you will IMHO opinion love every one
of them as i surmise you love the more glamourous
and aesthetically pleasing units ,figures as do i!!….there everything and nothing
in that clue!! cant say anymore or phut goes the
firework display when they are released.!! regards

| deadhead | 05 Feb 2014 3:44 p.m. PST |
He is teasing us………..keeping us keen! What's the guess? I'd say Lasalle…Boney in his early days crossing the Alps maybe…ADC to Murat…..Blucher under his white horse? But then he said "unit", not a single figure! This might be it…the Gendarmes d'Elite…at long last….I really believe……….finally. (maybe) |
| jammy four | 08 Feb 2014 6:57 a.m. PST |
KaweWeissiZadeh and deadhead pushing ahead with the Napoleonic "masterplan" and hopefully my passion and effort will be rewarded………..for sure i will have some Napoleonics for Salute………..are either of you gentlemen going? regards Ged gringo40s.com

I'll actually be walking from Wavre to Plancenoit one day that week, whilst Mrs Deadhead sits in that expensive Arcade in Brussels drinking coffee, till lunchtime, when she starts on something more fortifying. The two lads are undecided, but, after two trips to the battlefield, are curious to see how Hougoumont is coming on, so I'll be far from South London………(if the rain ever stops that is) |
| jammy four | 08 Feb 2014 4:50 p.m. PST |
Deadhead sounds cool………may bump into you withj Mrs Gringo then!!..bit like the Grand tour for Napoelonic buffs in 2015
not going wouldnt be cricket! |

Murat on foot coming soon from Gringo 40's Love the sculpt & I am watching this range develop with interest Mark |

Now I love the Murat on foot figure. Something completely different and will fit in beautifully with some of my other dismounted French senior management team! It would be great to see Murat in some other costumes, such ast the one he wore at Borodino in 1812. Regardless, awesome figures, will get both in due course. |
| jammy four | 11 Feb 2014 4:12 a.m. PST |
i see lead people cheers for that.like you i would love to see
more Murats as you can guess im a huge fan of the
uniforms worn by him……..his extensive wardrobe is on my
list ……The uniform at Borodino is cool..as is the Eylau one..o and the Tolentino kit..and etc…etc the list is endless.happy to take any suggestions on him, regards
