Coming on nicely Steve.

Looking good Steve. Shake looks suitably bashed about. Havelock looks a little clean in comparison, though I don’t think you’ve finished it yet….

Thanks
The Havelock is a lot darker/ worn in the flesh. also has an annoying seam line, for which I have ordered a 1mm micro chisel

Bit more wear and tear added to the 'cross belts' (if thats the right word for them), Detail to be added to the button straps (again if thats the correct terminology, apologies if not);

1mm Micro Chisel arrived yesterday so hopefully can get rid of that pesky seam on the neck curtain.

Cross belts looking excellent Steve. Nice representation of wear in the pipe clay finish……
