British Officer 1942

[bladerunner8u]

This is a Hornet conversion in 1/35th scale.
Artillery played a major role on the outcome of the battle of El Alamein and can be seen by the smile on the face of this officer.
Painted in oils.

Glenn:
Love it. Fresh take on a classic little figure. What head did you use? I had toyed with doing the same using a Scot's head wearing a diced sidecap. Also, what was your oil mix for the shirt?
Cheers

Thanks Paul

It is a Hornet turned head set but I used a Hat cut from an old Verlinden Fig.
The shirt is ; white, napels yellow, cad. red, black, ultr. blue.

Great work!
can you give us a close up? I don't see any distinction on his epaulettes.
