Ted Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 Hi Folks, as a photo-posting test (I'm new to Flickr) here's a 1/35 plastic conversion of ICM figures to produce a Lord Strathcona Horse Royal Canadian trooper. I'm not sure of the vintage of the cap badge. 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

krow113 Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 Nice work. If you post a pic of the cap badge (front view) I can check references for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ted Posted February 3, 2018 Author Share Posted February 3, 2018 Thanks guys, here's a close up of the badge Steve. I got it at a military antique store in Victoria BC. I imagine it's WW2 vintage but have no idea. It was brightly plated but I used some washes to dull it down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

krow113 Posted February 4, 2018 Share Posted February 4, 2018 Couldn't find it in any of my books. Google brings up: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lord_Strathcona's_Horse_(Royal_Canadians) http://regimentalrogue.com/battlehonours/bathnrarmd/02-ldsh.htm https://www.canadiansoldiers.com/regiments/armoured/lordstrathconashorse.htm http://www.warmuseum.ca/cwm/exhibitions/boer/strathconahorse_e.shtml Looks to be lots of info.

Jim Wasley Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 So real looks like the steed is ready to gallop away,fine piece of work.Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meeko23 Posted February 12, 2018 Share Posted February 12, 2018 Very nicely done. As regards the cap badge, the crown at the top is the current Queens crown, if you look at the link that KROW gave, http://regimentalrogue.com/battlehonours/bathnrarmd/02-ldsh.htm you can see the cap badge during the 2 world wars was the Tudor crown, whereas the badge you have displayed is the St Edwards crown Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
