Completed Tommy's War Gordon Highlander. 54mm

[Tommy's War]

Great paint job, looks great.

The resin on areas such as the bayonet is cast extremely finely and sometimes there can be a little bend. It will come back to shape with a small amount of heat (from a bulb or warm water). The trick is to warm it lightly and just stroke it back straight gently.

If all fails and you get a break, just give me a shout

Nicely done Roger. Looking forward to the next one, which have you got?
Cheers Mat

Thank you Mat, I'm working on TW54001 Private Middlesex regt. but mine will be slightly converted to represent a Private of the Kings Royal Rifle Corps. Just because I wanted to paint the buttons black.

Thank you very much Darren and thanks for the tip I'll give it a try.
I really enjoyed painting this one and there's more to follow.

Thanks for the tip Keith, I have another figure primed and waiting that will be wearing hose so that will come in handy......sometime.

Always happy to help Roger.
Now looking forward to seeing your next hose tops.....that sounds a bit perverse but you know what I mean.
Cheers,
Keith.
