Very well done Mate, three years on and you (we both) are still enthuse about bill Mott,
Your additions to this piece were a brilliant flash of inspiration. Pace stick, bearskin cap lining, sword etc. love them, great work
Did I read that you are not going use the highly modified bearskin cap?
Top man MR P. well presented, now get some good pics of him and stop teasing.

Hi Kevin
I just might like to take you up on that kind offer Kevin.
Pete has sewn a seed with me to have a go at another Guardsman with bearskin cap off and that would save a load of work.
Many thanks
Keith

Having seen your struggles with the sword, you can understand why I positioned his left arm holding his pace stick when I did the marching conversion for Gordon! Your half figure with service cap looks first class.

Just your knowledge of all things Guards and the fact that I can draw on it drives me to try out things in these regiments.

Kevin
Many thanks. I hope that I can do it justice.
I ment to comment on the lining of that cap.......How bloody good is that!!! I am sure that I could see the makers phone number.

Well its time for me to drive south to la Vuelta Tour of Spain for a couple of weeks.
Many thanks to you both

My next project for Gordon is due to be a 200mm Scots Guardsman, standing at attention, order arms, for Mott to be shouting at! Bearskin with double link chinscale already done .

Happy modelling,

Well it's turned out very nicely feller, a big well done from me.

We all know it would've been better in a green doublet and
a kilt but.........

Well done mate.

So on to a straight forward bust of a Hussar now then.
