Just thought it would help to break up two similar colours, Had it in my head you were going darker on the tunic, so as you were 6 & two 3s M

Nice start Kev. Tunic colour is good, make the shawl a little lighter than the tunic. Saffron spot on. Liking it so far. Keep it up M

Found one.

Buggered if I can find a picture but it had a metal slide attached to the rear side to slide behind a belt, sash or waistband of the trouser. M

Looking good Kev, Nice shade of Rifle green to be starting on, Not even O'Rafferty's Motor car has that shade of green on the Cuff😂. Will be following Mick

Medal looks good Kev. If you were to twist the top toggle button a little similar to the one below ,you may be able to fit another??

He is an Royal Inniskilling Fusilier So no plaid, no saffron, but French Grey. It will have a tad of Saffron on the kilt. Mick

Looks good Kev. Maybe a little picky but are the medals to close to the button, can you move a tad over with the pin just covering the top corner of the medal ribbon? Mick

I posted this idea earlier on but it disappeared so I re posted. Mick

seems to have lost a post. try No2. Also you could think about placing the tara pin a tad higher and to the right. Mick

The medals will be fine on the Shawl. ( Cloth over the shoulder):rolleyes:. As for Court mounted I'm not so sure. The widow at Windsor instigated it as she didn,t like the sound of the Officers at court medals clinking about. Hence Court Mounted. As for O/R or senior NCO's having theirs Court...

Agree. Set of three would look good, Also add a tad of colour on the French Grey. Mick

Nice work Kev. It will look great when painted up. Mick

Sold down the river for a splash of red.:D Nice work on the conversion. Just one question. In the Uniform Information you have listed above it states Sword knot Black leather . you have made it into a cord? Look forward to seeing this in all its new glory. Mick
