Peter Pig does not make a Napoleonics line, and until these samples arrived, I had never laid eyes on them. I have to say I like them quite a bit. They measure in (at least this one does) at 15 mm from eye to sole, and generally score high on all my criteria.
Dem Bones - The Anatomy: The only negative I see is the hands - they are too large for what is otherwise an excellent figure. The face has some character and would reward better painting skills than mine. Everything else - the torso, legs, feet, and head all seem to be from the same person.
Everybody Vogue: I like the pose as well. The legs are spread but not overly so. The elbows look to be in the right places. Overall this figure looks very nice both from a distance as well as close up.
Do Those Buttons Read USA or USB? This is a figure with a high-drama sculpting style. The folds in the clothes are strong and deep, making for an easily highlighted figure. This figure also has a few little touches that add to the appeal. The open jacket with a nicely detailed shirt. The jacket tail resting on the cartridge box where it has been pushed back. Everything is crisp, easy to find, and a pleasure to paint.
