61st Bengal Native Infantry

[Nap]

Hi Guys

Thought I would post these pictures of a bust finished recently ..sculpted by Steve Leadley ( Valiant of this parish) .

I added the rank and the crossbelt with the plate on it ( also "sculpted" by me!!!)

Nice piece to do , made a nice change

Would probably put it on a lower wooden base again but its staying there now!!!!

The red is darker!!!

Here is the WIP link http://www.planetfigure.com/threads/sepoy-61st-bengal-native-infantry-regt.81041/


This will be at BUGLE CALL on the 27th November if you want to have a look!!....so will Steve's version as well on his club display

On a serious note I like it a lot and it has helped a great deal with something I have waiting at home.

The British army in the subcontinent and the British army in general especially in the 19th century is a very interesting subject and one of my favourites.This is a very well painted figure and an extremely interesting subject.

That's a tough one Nap...to pull off that skin tone.....But it looks good....Overall paint and balance makes for a great piece.......
