Harry Hotspur

[bistray]

Hi all Ian at Ellies miniatures has asked me to post some pics of this bust for you, its a 200mm bust of harry Hotspur otherwise known as Sir Henry Percy or the Duke of Northumberland, sculpted in sculpy, sculpy firm and milliput. Unfortunately it wont be ready for Euro but should be shortly after.
The kit should come in about 19 pieces.




















Hope you like it

Cheers Paul, we will have the master at Euro and hope to have it released shortly after. Paul has done a great job on this and it's a little different from what we have done in the past. we are always looking to bring something new to the range and we think Paul as done a great job on this one.

Cheers Brian Glad you like it, Just did not have time to make it a Euro release but it will be worth the wait.

Cheers

I don't know if you've ever been to Alnwick ( pronounced Anick) but on your way in there's a large plynth with a bronze statue of the "Percy Lion". In the 70s some one (probably after a few broon ales) thought it would be fun to paint it's testicles with luminous paint. It lasted the weekend but then with all the complaints, especially from "The Duke", the council sent out a couple of workers to clean of the paint. All was well until some one looked up and realised that in cleaning of the paint they'd managed to remove the patina from the bronze. So now they had a lovely dark bronze lion with a pair of highly polished bollocks!

No I think they sorted it after a while, but the rest of Northumberland will never forget!
