Thanks to Pavol and Jason for bringing this bust to life. Casting was done by me.

Grenadier, Captain John Lasher's
New York City Grenadier Company
Continental Army 1775-1776
1/10 scale resin
Sculpted by: Pavol Ovecka
Box art painted by: Jason Green
Item: PO02

Captain John Lasher 1724-1806 was a Lieutenant in the British Grenadier Guards 53rd Regiment in 1759. He was a Lieutenant under Lord Sterling of the regiment in 1765. When the revolutionary war broke out Lasher joined the Continentals and in 1775 raised an independent grenadier foot company battalion in New York City. He became Colonel of the regiment and served as its captain. Captain Lasher saw that his regiment was dressed in blue coats with red and yellow facing and brass buttons . The regiment wore a tall miter cap of red cloth with the motto “salus patria excitat” adapted from the text found on the German Fusiliers pouch.
Hope you enjoy,
Mike

I think the "whistle" is actualy a match for the grenades.

I really have to say this, with the year nearly ending, Pavol Ovecka is really the industry revelation of 2014! A stunning number of creations, some exquisite life likeness to well knows characters and quite prolific too: Tackling several periods and subjects. Pity there's no Oscars or Cups here to laureate him as he properly deserves!

This bust is marvelous and it's great to see miniatures from the American Revolutionary War coming in! Fantastic novelty and perfectly done!!!
