Napoleonic Marshals

I had bought several Napoleonic Marshals which were available as kits from a then prolific company New Hope Design. Their main philosophy was to produce figures based on paintings found in the very successful Osprey illustrated booklets. As their output was considerable, and they employed several sculptors, the quality differed between their ranges.

Six of these marshals were assembled, partly converted, and shown here. Generally the characteristics of each named marshal is well-captured in these delightful pieces, all 54mm.


Later, I also bought a Le Cimier kit and this was a better sculpted piece, about 60mm.
