Excellent paint work!

However, after having sculpted this figure it occurred to me that the tunic is actually a British (95th?) Rifle officer's tunic with added badges. This would make the tunic dark green and not the parrot green you have painted it. In fact, all references for this figure definitely show the dark green color of the tunic. I expect it should also have the same coat tails as the British rifle tunic. To date, I have yet to find a reference which shows what the 95th coat tails actually looked like! Go figure.....

When I locate that reference, I would like to paint this one myself one day......

BTW, the figure is 120mm not 200mm! The difference is considerable. This figure is available from SK Miniatures.....
