Napoleonic Minion

[rockpaperscissor]

I saw a Google image of a "Napoleon Minion" the other day and it inspired me to create this little guy, using one of Bruno's minions as a starting point. The costume is pretty much copied right from the online image, except for the overly tall busby, which makes mine look even more comical.

I'm thinking of doing a series of these with slightly more authentic looking uniforms and headgear: Hussars, Lancers, Dragoons, Carabiniers, Imperial Guard, even Napoleon himself could all be "minionized" without too much difficulty. I think it would make a pretty cool collection.

What do you think?

Looks good. Those other ideas sound good, too. Make a whole bunch of those critters and play a game.

Nice concept and model. Minions make me smile

Very good. I like it and look forward to more, but for true Waterloo style he needs to be a little less parade straight.

Doing a 'Boney' should look good too, 'specially if accompanied by a Dook o' Boots. In fact a complete chess set of Waterloo minions starts to form in the imagination.

Oh how I'd love to join you in the task, but I'm afraid the sore fingers and feet syndrome is still very much in charge here. The Adolf and R2D2 minions still sit on my tray unfinished. Even the 10" high Kevin (destined to be a pop top clippings bin) is still just a bald scalp, but there's been no clippings to put in it so far this year.

Thanks for your interest, fellas. Sorry to hear about your continuing problems with the old digits, Johnny. Must be very frustrating for you.

Next, I think I'll minionize Napoleon himself. The troopers are going to need a commander, after all.

Great looking minion Don. like your idea for the collection.

'Bony Parts' safely downloaded today, but will you be making this trooper available too, or are you going to re-hash it first?
