Antoine Lasalle

Recently, I came across a lot of Napoleonic uniform references, mainly drawn by Rigo. These have given impetus to create more Napoleonic figures.

I am resurrecting this figure of General Lasalle made many years ago from Historex parts. In reading about the man, it appears that Lasalle was a short man. Hence I shortened his legs and the results were unedifying. His feet barely cleared the saddle skin and I abandoned the project then.

In analysing this piece again, I think that it can be salvaged if I reworked it considerably.
