33rd Buffs, Mitches Military 200mm

[Warren SMITH]

Ive been procrastinating over finishing this excellent sculpt from Mitches, due to not bein g totally happy with the Muskets casting, slightly warped and casting moulds on the firing mechanism. I even ordered a replacement musket from Reedes.. But in the end didnt use it as the right hand was moulded holding the top of the musket...
So this is the finished piece. Painted in Acrylics with the built base purchased off Ebay a few years ago..
I still have the drummer and Ensign to build so eventually I will show all three together...
This is one of my better efforts and Im pleased with my results..

Excellent Warren

Nicely done: the larger the figure, the less shading is required.

Hi Warren

Great to see what you've been up to , that's a big piece , looks good , ideal piece to change the facings on , perhaps after a bit of work on the lace style
