A few more pictures in my bucket –
Napoleon, Massena's "companion" and Marshal Murat.

Napoleon is the Perry figure, altered by bringing his outstretched arm behind his back. Instead of having him surrounded by staff, I wanted to convey "It's lonely at the top" and have him standing in the small personal space his inner guard maintained for him. I believe only Berthier and his servant Ali could enter it without permission.

Massena's mistress is a Perry French staff officer, quite a bit smaller than usual, with the head replaced by a Hasslefree one and hair added. I didn't alter the rest of the figure in any way.

Murat is the excellent figure by Gringo 40s, unaltered.

So here they are:

Absolutely brilliant.

Really imaginative. She is just superb. Gringos40 will be delighted to see Murat shown like this.

Last few days we have suddenly seen so many clever conversions, yours' included……but Massena's "mate" is just inspired work. I had never heard of Hasslefree until another post today. Females and civilians in general are hard to find (I had thought anyway)
