Lt. Gen Marquis de Vogue

Back to 40mm yesterday. I need a French cavalry general so I opted for Lt. Gen Charles Francois Elzear, Marquis de Vogue, who commanded cavalry in several 7YW actions and became cavalry inspector general. (See profile in Kronoscaf).
The horse holder trying to calm the startled horse is a trooper from the Noailles cavalry regiment, which I am currently recruiting. I enjoy these command vignettes which make a nice break from painting up full regiments.

  1. Nice vignette, the horse is very well done.
