I wouldn't worry as we have LeRoy on our to do list. Mind you we will probably be accused of underscale figures as she was quite short in real life at 5'.  lol

Thats quite a good likeness of her and captures her inner Bardot.  ;)

Nice work.

That Leroy figure looks quite good, which is a pleasant surprise, considering the iffy nature of some of their other figures. How does she scale up with the Empress range. I noticed that photos of other figures in that range are giants.

She scales really well with Empress, admittedly disregarding the fact that she was indeed a very petite woman at about 1.52m. She is slightly shorter than an Empress US Marine. But you are correct with regard to the other figures. Sculpting styles differ wildly. I ordered their female Vietcong figure as well but she must have been the tallest woman in the Mekong Delta. She is almost a head taller than my Empress and TAG figures.

Mentioning Bardot, inner or otherwise, should compel you to make a 28mm Serge Gainsbourg. Greatest Frenchman ever, period, full stop, amen.*
