Red Five Posted February 7, 2020 Share Posted February 7, 2020 (edited) I posted this guy a while back in a group of other pics but heres a few more angles. Not the greatest job but fun to paint. Dont think the photos help much either. Bonus Richard Sharpe Edited February 7, 2020 by Red Five 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But guess practice makes perfect. Pittyh its like £20 a pop to get figures to practice on. Might buy a few random heads at the next show i'm at to practice on.

What a coincidence! Was down on the orbat to go however had to pull out as too much on. Perks of being the Drum Major! I've been to both. Really cool to see such places. Went to hougoumont. Went with my wife and one of my mates who took his french fiance. There's something far, far to satisfying going to waterloo with a french person. I was unbearable haha. I'm not a brexity type person but couldnt help myself. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
