"My Lord Wellington! The devil is back from St Helena!"
"What? Who? Old Boney? But he's dead, man!"
Waterloo wasn't the end, as Napoleon Bonaparte raises his dead soldiers and aims to conquer Europe again.
I don't think Lord Sidney knew what he was getting into with his alternative history location. This figure is Napoleon Blownapart from Eureka Miniatures. I do think he could have had his hand in his innards.
1x 28mm figure 5
Roundwood's Tower 30
Skull-o-meter™: 1

What a fantastic model - Boney old Boney ! Looks alike a roundshot from a 12 pounder went right into his guts too. Nasty... Thats a pretty weak reading on the Skull-o-meter, but I'll allow it :-)
35 points Sir!

interesting... do they have Blucher with an elephant?
ReplyDeleteDamnable Frenchies, impregnating the gallant marshall with a pachyderm! ;)
DeleteI'm sure if you ask Nic nicely...
DeleteOh man...hilarious. Great stuff Barks.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Greg!
DeleteThat's a great figure Barks! :)
ReplyDeleteI've him for years; this was the perfect excuse to slap paint on.
DeleteEwww! Great mini Barks.
ReplyDeleteCheers, Curt!
DeleteSplendid interpretation, he's ace!
ReplyDeleteBest Iain
Thanks, Iain!
DeleteSeriously wired and funny figure! Well done Barks.
ReplyDelete'Wired'? Is he somehow anamatronic?
DeleteOoh, Napoleonic/ Terminator crossover! Je vais revenir!
DeleteJeeze Barks that's gruesome for sure, yet more true then you'd suspect... When travelling back from St Helena, Boney's remains were sans une instrument du marriage... Look it up I dare you ;-)
ReplyDeleteI’m not brave enough to look it up, my imagination is working overtime...
DeleteHa what a great figure! Nice one Barks!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Ray!
DeleteWell, that puts an end to all rumours of the Emperor suffering from stomach cancer or an ulcer, I suppose... And to any appetite I may have had. Intrigueing figure nonetheless.
ReplyDeleteThank you!
