54mm Chota Sahib - 1 REP Algiers 1957

[RobH]

I started this in 2013. And nearly finished the base and partially painted the figure.
A month ago, having painted several figures, I figured I’d improved enough that I striped the figure, and started again, something I’d never done before.

The figure is a solid sculpt, despite being nearly 40 years old!

Nicely based and good work on the "lizard" camo.

Excellent Rob. Best painted work of this figure, I've seen in 40 years. Wish someone could remake this figure in 1/10th scale' or at least a bust.

Just brilliant Rob

Still got this one which was one of the last figures I painted when it was first released. Love the setting that you've added which sets it off beautifully

Excellent work, when a photo of a 54mm figure is blown up to that size and looks that good, you know your painting is first rate.. Always get a buzz when these " Old " figures are but on show..

Excellent paint work!

 

[Chris Oldfield]

Outstanding in all aspects, especially the camo. As mentioned above, it's great to see Sid Horton's work live on with examples as good as this.
