Completed 1st Bn Royal West Kent's, 1898.

[Viking Bob]

Troop54 miniature, 54mm
I painted this one back in January 2018, which can be seen here
www.planetfigure.com/threads/royal-west-kent-regiment-india-1898.114191/

I was not happy with the face and uniform so a Dettol bath later and I have now finished this one again.
The face has been painted in oils and the uniform in acrylics. The ground work is soil from the quantock hills, this year had been quite dry in May, a great time to pick some fine soil.

Thanks for looking in

Nice work Bob - I've got this figure in my GA & your fine example has inspired me to get on with it!

A lovely looking figure from the start and all credit to you for giving it a bath and the resulting finish looks really nice ...good use of readily available local and free basing materials

Oh & BTW, the 2 with the swords in your period photo look a right pair of cutthroats!

Nice one Bob. Love the new take on this and must applaud you tackling something this size twice. My eyes would have given up the ghost long before.
