Love the colour of the turban, looks really good. Those medals will be very impressive when finished.

Thank you Graham appreciate the turban comment ..pleased with it ...hoping medals will be okay !


Just caught up again with this one Nap, superb painting and very colourful uniform and medals!!


Hi Bob

Always good to see you posting mate , I have had this bust longer than I want to remember ! .......it will be colourful ...there's not much actual uniform to paint ...mostly gold bling

Stay safe all

Excellent vibrant painting on this fellow!

An unusual combination of green and orange and the gold braiding a little excessive, that man didn't surely want to go unnoticed;)!

cheers,

Pierre

Medals.....arrghh:eek: Nice work Kev:D!

Phil

Hi Phil

As you put it "Argghh" .......the ref pic showing original ribbons shows faded ribbons , namely 2nd and 3rd from the left looking at him ....

2nd should be a blue it's a medal known as the Kesari I Hind , he was awarded the 2nd class in Silver

3rd shoukd be a black ribbon ...Order of St John , medals is white enamel cross with silver in between

Here's some images , the 3rd is Order of Indian Empire with a dark blue ribbon which is the senior medal (1st in line )

The 4th is the Order of British India worn at the neck

Ribbons corrected now !

Stay tuned

Happy benchtime
