Completed Officer 71st Highlanders 1854

[Wings5797]

Hello everybody.
A very nice bust from Sovereign 2000 and a treat to paint this 71st infantry Officer at the Crimea 1854.
He is not the best turned out Jock on parade but I hope that you can see where I am coming from.
Seasons wishes
Keith

Nice work and unusual slant--don't often see the reality of the unwashed filth of warfare. Can almost see the lice crawling on him.

I am on a burnt umber kick on this one and can say every mix has a measure of it (some in very short measure).
Very pleased that you like it Mate, value your comment.
All the best

Hey Omez,
That is the best supportive line that I have ever had. I will be smiling with those words for a long long time.
Many thanks
Keith
