"Merde!"  It's Cambronne AGAIN!

After my last post, a friend told me I had opted for the wrong colours on Cambronne's sash as, being a maréchal de camp, he should have a gold and blue sash not gold and red.  So, as my incipient OCD would not let that go, I have repainted his sash, and this time I think I've made a better job of it.  Yay!



At the same time a slight error was pointed out in the accompanying Young Guard Voltigeurs so they were also corrected.  The change is rather small and I'll leave it to the viewer to see if they can spot it.

  1. Cambronne had the blues in more ways than one, apparently. He remains, as do the Voltigeurs, absolutely superb.

  2. He looks rather dapper with the blue sash…
    The change on the Voltigeurs must be minute… I certainly can’t see it…
    But of course I didn’t spot anything to begin with 🙀

    All the best. Aly

    1. Thanks, I'm happier now I know I've got him right, but I think the red did add an interesting touch of contrasting colour.
