Troop54, French Foreign Legion, 1854/55

[Viking Bob]

A legionnaire on sentry in the Crimea.
I have made a scarf to go over the kepi and replaced the bayonet with one from a Metal Modeles musket.
Painted in oil and acrylics.

Great work Bob! You have captured the setting perfectly. A cold day at the front, indeed. Love the groundwork and how it all comes together.

Cheers,
