Just Bought! Lucky me! 90mm Chota sahibs!

Don't forget, Barton did a 90mm Mounted Core of Guides, if memory serves correctly. Ray

That's right, another of the ones I have not seen for ages!

Good morning Pierre!There is an other 90 mm Chota Sahib figure.It´s the 10th year celebrity figure from Sid Horton.An officer from the 1 st Skinners Horse in his yellow Parade Dress.I bought it some time ago from a PF-member.And the only time I saw the boozy Major in colour is a photo in one of Shep Paine´s books.He stood on a fibre flocks tiger fur.

I checked in my grey army, you're 100% correct, it's a 90mm . Wy did I ever theought it was a 100 ?

Hi Pierre

I don't know how I missed this thread back in 2018 , great finds for you and lovely to hear the replies from all and see the versions

All classic figures , the Raj and Indian Army are so colourful and interesting subjects

Do share anf other completed pieces

Figures very much "of their time" (for the most part) but iconic nonetheless. Nothing wrong with a bit of nostalgia!

Rather surprised to see this old thread popping into live again.
Figures "of their time" indeed, when the figure world was largely a British and French affair, static and stately but made by human sculptor's hands, quite a contrast to many a present day approach to creation.
Age must surely influence my thinking, but the names of Horton, Lamb & Grieve will forever remain in my very personal Hall of Fame!

Still gathering up the courage to put paint on these iconic beauties....

cheers,

Pierre
