Last night I got together with the 25mm Empire gaming group around the corner from home. I had not seen them all for a while so it was good to catch up. We began a new game between a corps of Austrians and a corps of French. I will post pics once it gets underway.
In the meantime, are you all familiar with this painting done by a Frenchman by the name of David?
David's Napoleon
Peter, from the 25mm group I game with, painted up his own version of it in 25mm.
Check this out:

Your friend paints well, but why did he cahnge the color of the horse's face. In the painting, is the horse not entirely white?
I think keeping it all white would've been better.

Fantastic work on that mini - but are you sure that's not actually the prince of Orange....!
Maybe the camera has distorted the colour of the cloak somewhat!
:-).
That's strange. The painting he has on his wall of this same image that he got from France has different colours for the horse.
Very nice.
This would explain it:

Includes brown-faced horse and orange cape. More than one version of the painting?
Great find mate. Well done.
