Mitches 75 Drummer Boy Crimea

[Blind Pew]

Hello guys, well I got sick and tired of going on about other peoples' figures and not posting my own. I was getting worried I was sounding like one of those know-it-alls who doesn't know one end of a brush from the other. I probably still don't.

Here is Stormtrooper's Crimean Drummer Boy resplendent in 75mm.
To be honest I bottled out of doing him for ages because I was too chicken to paint that drum. However I bit the bullet and had a go. Please forgive my poor photos.

I enjoyed the process and it was nice to paint in a different way for a change as I do not consider myself a 'precise' painter.

Any and all comments are welcome.

I like this one a lot. The face has turned out really well and you've done some great detailing on the drum

Hi BP

Another really nice bit of artwork , like the piece as it depicts these so young boys , which you have captured well in the painting of the face .

Drum looks rather nifty detailing as well

Thanks for sharing

Very well painted and presented but I think its a Stormtroopers figure and not Mitches, please correct me if I am wrong.

Tommi mate, you are 100% spot on (again). It is by Stormtroopers! D'oh!! The mistake is mine and mine alone. I am a total muppet.
