discussion 54mm Airfix Scots Greys

[rtfoe]

Hi all,
I can't say this is finally done as it was done ages ago but will say it's the last of the images I have of this build. Basically it's to show the added pistol...and some gloss for mud.



The only gore I could permit myself to show was the blood stains on the pennant and the tip of the lance. I begin to understand the bulb after the tip of the lance was to stop the lance from running all the way through the enemy thus being able to extricate and re-use the lance on the gallop.



Not the actual order of battle dress. In reality the bearskin headdress would be covered with oiled wraps and white gloves removed and tucked away



Well that's it. I'm trying to find the time to do the other three Airfix kits...I just hope I won't take too long and have a recess in between. :smiling2:

Cheers,
Richard

That's a lovely piece , Richard, and a high bar to set for anyone else doing one..........:thinking:

Brilliant modelling Richard :smiling3:.

 

[rtfoe]

Thanks Neil and Ralph, needless to say I may have set it to my disadvantage as it can be challenging for my next Napoleonic figure.

Cheers,
Richard

Stunning work Richard. A real head turner. Well done sir!

Thanks Steve, sorry for the late response...finally settling down to my work bench and chatgroups.

Cheers,

Richard,
That is excellent mate.

 

[rtfoe]

Thanks Scottie, it's been a while but I think I had better repair the horses ears.

Cheers,
Richard
