Wargames Illustrated did a nice Toussaint Louverture figure a couple of years back as part of their 'Giants in Miniature' range. I don't know if it's still available.

Toussaint Louverture figure. Mounted from Trent; dismounted from Wargames Illustrated.

Cheers for the comments guys!!!
I think the WI figures is all sold out? I didn't realise it was a dismounted figure though?

I thought I was familiar with the WI Giants range but I don't recognise the dismounted one - maybe it was a show special?

Looks great,btw - I'm getting into early Napoleonic 'Colonial' stuff - about to do Napoleon in Egypt.

I gotta get me a Toussaint L'Overture personality set.  Thank you for sharing and I appreciate where the figures can be obtained. You did a great job with the figures.

You're absolutely right, I'm sorry. I painted the unmounted (resin) one for Wargames Illustrated, but it was a WI show special for 'Salute 2015', not their 'Giants in Miniature'.

As you were!
