YM7002
The Royal Highland Regiment of Foot
70mm white metal
Sculpted by Paulo Gago
Painted by Young C. Jung
13 parts + etched brass plaque

This is a 70mm white metal figure sculpted by Paulo Gago. Highly detailed with crisp lines and consists of 13 parts plus an etched brass plaque.

The parts of this kit come in Young's sturdy black box with all parts sandwiched between many layers of foam. The small parts come in a plastic baggie to ensure against loss or damage.

The upper torso comes with the head attached and the bottom forms into a lug for positioning to the leg assembly.

The leg section of the torso has slight seam lines down the side of the legs and when dry-fitted to the upper portion of the figure there is only slight filing to be done for a perfect fit.

Above we see the 2 sections of the torso dry-fitted with only a slight gap (due to mold plug ). After removing the small mold burr they should fit together perfectly.

Above we see the front and back of the arms.

Thanks guys for the comments. This is a sweet figure with crisp detail. I may just have to borrow that bottle of plaid paint from Joe Hudson and paint him..

Hey Guy

When you're finished with that bottle of plaid paint, can I borrow it?? I have a rather large Scottish King sitting in front of me demanding a paint job!!

Cheers
