These are two new bust by Peter Gillson at Sarnia Miniatures.

Hardy performed many a gallant action bringing in wounded from no-mans land.

The second represents Captain Francis Octavius Grenfell VC:

Grenfell helped save a gun despite having just received two bullet wounds. Both men died during the war and are buried in France.

Lovely busts Peter...the leather on the brown (forgotten what its called) is very convincing. A real compliment to PG's sculpts.

Cheers,
