Hi Frans

That looks great I saw Robs original at last years Euro it rightly got a gold award

What mixes did you use for the uniform colour ?

Ribbons look very good as well

I reviewed this for Rob and enjoyed every second

Thanks for sharing

Hi Nap,

Thank you very much and glad you like it!

As I can remember I used vallejo English uniform as base colour, and a 1/1 mix of English uniform with khaki grey.
Added some buff for the first highlights and a bit more for the last.

Would love to come to Euro sometimes, but it's a bit to far I'm afraid...

Lovely work Frans.
Please snip the casting vent plug off the bayonet handle.

Thank you, and that is already been done a while ago, these pics are taken with that mistake visable.

I missed it then, but it was a very easy fix.
Here's a picture as it stands in my cabinet now without the casting piece and with a decent name plate.

Thanks for pointing it out though!
