Help find my commissioned figure... help required pls!

[Rossley]

Hi all

My bespoke figure is missing! PLEASE HELP!!!

Any assistance in tracking down my artillery figure would be greatly appreciated. In March 2013, I spoke to the late Pete Morton who confirmed he was altering some details to my figurine (Pete did the whole figure for me) - unfortunately this figure has now disappeared. I simply cannot find anyone who saw it - I have paid in full for it and so am double whammied - no figure or cash!!!

His pickelhaube should now have changed its style to that of a Pith - while retaining the "hair" at the top. There may be other small changes - I am not sure how far Pete got with it.

In essence this commissioned figure means alot to me - its representation and sentimental value is enormous. It may have been mistakenly picked-up or bought...

Please assist if you can.

Many thanks
Rossley

I'm sure he had a mailing address. Don't you have it? If so why not enclose a letter and photo of the figure explaining the circumstances?

Have you tried to contact his survivors or the executors of his estate?

Thank you Geoff. Sad news indeed.

Thanks for reading my cry for help and replying guys.

Naturally, I did do some investigative work.

Those individuals that were directly involved with Pete's estate did not see my figure there (when they collected their items) - this includes Rob (BobLff257 - who suggested I post this request) and Ian (ellie miniatures). I have spoken with Ricky (Pete's cousin) who also cannot find it. Pete's sister, Jules, has not back back to me in this forum yet.
I have tried to contact Maurice Corry (who worked closely with Pete) - but no luck so far!

Cheers, Rossley

Hi Rossley,
Pete also sculpted for myself and for another friend, I will certainly ask and it looks a lovely figure.
