WIP 38th Foot, Inkerman, 1854

[valiant]

Hi Guys,
here is my latest WIP - a British infantryman, 38th foot, Inkerman, 1854 - much work to do yet, he now has a crossbelt added, but sculpting is slow due to a broken finger!
hope you like it so far!

Hi Steve, a great start and neat work on the braiding. Hope the digit gets better soon.

Thanks Ken,
thought id pick a local regiment, not realising that it had bastion lace! its been a swine, but hopefully will add a nice detail, when painted up - the finger is slowing me down a lot!
will post more when ive progressed a bit more,
cheers

Steve,

Nice work mate , look forward to seeing the badge on the shako ...bastion ..never did make it easy for yourself but its come out really well.

I would have preferred personally to have colour Sgts rank but thats just me as IMO it would add more interest to the piece ..go on you know you want to !!!

Are you using MAA as a reference ?

Keep posting updates

Hi guys,
here are the latest pics of my 38th Foot bust - sorry about the grainy image, my camera seems to prefer sunny days outside! the shako fits better than it looks - blame the bluetack! still much to do, hope you like it so far!
cheers
