Officer of the 24th Zululand 1878

[Briggsy]

Tidy work mate. Got some really nice results there.

And the plinth colour plays nicely with the rest of it to top it off!

Cheers Rocco, it's not that bad is it! Thanks for pointing out about the plinth, that wasn't even a consideration but now you've highlighted it I'll run with that idea.

Cheers Simon

That turned out really well, you should be very pleased with it. Are you obsessed with busts now? (fnarr fnarr)

Yes I am and no I'm not. Not one to congratulate myself on a job well done but yes I am very pleased with it but no I will do busts again but they will be few and far between. I do however want to increase the scale of my own builds, initially to 54mm/1/32nd and maybe a bit more. Flippin' typical when I have a shed load of 1/35 heads. Oh well such is life.

Cheers Simon

Cheers Steve, I'm pleased with it as much for finishing it as how it's turned out. One of yours is the next bust I want to do, be a few months yet but the fella with the brass mitre cap on, memory is shocking just these days, too many concussions playing rugby and fighting! I know he's Germanic though!

Cheers Simon
