General of the Empire

Well here we go, after originally purchasing the general of the Empire model and not being too happy with it at all (I can't help but dislike how bulky he is) I decided to make my own from a Handgunner and a Pegasus (among a few other bits, including more to come!). The Pegasus was a bit of an on the spot purchase as I loved the model and then realised after that my General would gain the "can fly" ability with no extra cost! (Why not?!).

So without further ado, here he is!

 I decided to go for the "over the top" heroic pose with this guy because why not? He's a bloody general!

Typical of my theme - lots of Sigmar scrolls!

Still a long way to go though, I'm wanting to add more laurels and make him stand out a bit more as a General should!

Another pro to the custom General - awesome beardiness, which was not found on the old General I had, a great improvement!



After umming and arring a while about my decision with the Empire General I have finally came to a decision to re-do him and have him seated, using the general from the "Karl Franz on Deathclaw" box and a bit of tweaking, I've finally got something I'm happy with!

And so we have him, he'll also be the first of my conversions for this army to see the good end of a paintbrush!

Although technically speaking, the lance isn't really too thematic for a Napoleonic General, I couldn't resist the bonus he receives from having a lance on the charge!

Overall I'm pretty pleased with the green / white / red scheme and I am definitely set on continuing this throughout the army very soon!
