Hello!

Just finished my latest vignette depicting the beginning of Napoleon's Egyptian adventure.

Figures and cannon are Esci with some adaptions. Palm tree is scratch built.

Nice conversions, great painting and the hot and dry scene is very well set.

Really good looking palm tree too. I don't recall seeing one done better than that.

That palm tree is really well done. I like the weathering on the boots and trousers. Thanks for sharing.

Well done vignette and a pleasure to study! I like besides your interesting adaptions of the Esci-figures especially the sand-painting on their boots.

I agree - great figures and palm tree. All that desert sand is making me thirsty!

Schoenen Abend Krugi,
I like these conversions a lot. I might steal this idea because some of these ESCI grenadier poses are not so useful as grenadiers, but as artillery... Ahaaa
