Light company officer 1781

[Viking Bob]

My take on this one from troop54. An officer of a light company, 1st battalion, 1st food guards 1781. A great little figure and my first 54mm for quite a while. Painted in acrylics and inks.

That's what sold it to me, a pair of optivisors are brilliant for this scale. But yes 54s are small.
All the best and give it a go.

Great work Bob. An unusual unit too, the First Food Guards!

Sorry, couldn't resist, sounds like a unit from Blackadder!

Wotcha Bob

That’s a cracking piece both in painting and subject matter , your definitely the man for “Red”

Lots of campaign details in the sculpt brought out well by your painting

Nicely presented as always

Thanks for sharing

Looking forward to seeing more

Have fun @ the bench
