This is a new venture for me I'm dipping a toe in the waters of selling instead of buying
This has been sculpted and will be cast by Planet Figures very own Steve Readdie (1969) it is a 1/9th/200mm scale bust of a Sgt of the Royal Tank Regiment in the tropical dress worn in the immediate post war years while the regiment was stationed there. The man depicted was not famous nor does he appear in any of the many histories of WWII however to me he was a hero in every way, he was my father. Steve has done a fantastic job of getting a likeness from a few small photos taken over 50 years ago and I am extremely grateful for all his work, time and attention to detail.... as well as not braining me for some of my more stupid requests and comments
This will be a very limited run and I'm not aiming to get rich from it (although if anybody wants to
make me rich I won't complain ) the busts will go for £22.50 and will be sold until the mould gives
out so around 20 figures or so at a guess. there will be no box or box art as I'm keeping costs to a
bare minimum as I said anybody who is interested send me a PM I aim to be at Figure World with a
painted version and again to save costs I can bring any figures there to save P&P
Finally should anybody want to replicate the man himself hair would be black and eyes blue and should you wish it I can send you a large scan of this which I intend to use as a nameplate myself, it was the name plate on his bunk door
