Like it as all your work . Excellent paintjob too.
Hi Mike,
As a person who has previously converted one of the predecessor's to this figure I can certainly appreciate those extra details that you have added. Such things as the 44th cross belt insignia, the collar and hat detail, the inner lining on the sheepskin. I just love that face and the hair, I wish this head was available as a spare in 1/16 scale.
I would like see what else you have stashed away in your pandora's box of 20 years..........any 1/16 Zulu War pieces by any chance!
cheers
Richie
Richie,
90mm is nowhere near 1/16th scale. I use 1/20th scale as an analog for "90mm". Notice that my 90mm figures are actually 90mm tall so that they look smaller than most "90mm" figures out there. I have little understanding why most "90mm" figures on the market are actually larger than 90mm tall. By that way of measuring i should be able to tell people I am 6 feet tall!
Also, there is not much "stashed away" in my spares boxes figure wise. This figure was an all new sculpt using no previously made parts other than the basic armature parts. The pistol was converted from one in my parts box. Being on my "bucket list" does not imply that I started anything, but only that I have harbored a desire to do a particular subject for sometime. There are yet more hiding in my head........

Well Ray,
I didn't see you walk pass the stand so may be that's why you missed it
I will have the box art with me at the GMMS show this weekend if anyone is going.
Sorry to everyone else as I am still having technical problems with the web site so this has not been added to the shop yet. If you wish to purchase one please PM and I will send details.
Regards
Hi Ray,
Glad Souter made it safely back to Malta and that the figure was worth the wait, it was nice to meet your brother also.
I will look forward to you posting some pictures of the finished model.
For those pF members looking to buy one you can get it online here
See you at a show somewhere in 2014.
Regards
Just wanted to ANNOUNCE that I am the PROUD owner of this GEM
Thanks John for being so nice & sold one to my brother, even though you were RELUCTANT since I didn't buy it myself from Euro
Well, I am SERIOUSLY TEMPTED to PUT EVERYTHING ASIDE, clean & construct (both very minimal ) this one piece GEM
For the 1st time in my life, I WILL be using the cast piece of terrain as it just CLICKS on to the feet lugs (or vice versa ) which become invisible
Mike, this piece just oozes Immortality from every resin hidden pore
