    Hi Guys,

    In conjunction with the 2 SBS threads here is the completed Earl of Manchester Musketeer bust.
    Here are the links.
    http://www.planetfigure.com/threads/sbs-part-2.69153/

    As you can see it depicts a Musketeer of the Earl of Manchester's regiment of foot I have just completed for Stormtrooper Miniatures.

    There is still a little cleaning but he's done other than that.

    Hope you like him, and you enjoyed the process of him evolving.

    Thanks for looking.

    Carl

    Fantastic sculpting job, Carl! This is going to be very popular indeed. Your list of cracking busts is expanding time after time

    On a sidenote: don't like the treathening warning on the photo at all, though. So ST does not want its product photos being shared by modelers on forums, FB, ect? Strange form of advertising for one should think that in our small community any free publicity is a bonus... o_O

    Cheers guys, glad you like him.
    It is a relatively untouched period. One that has lots of scope to develop, and loads of character to get your teeth into.

    Cheers Johan, glad you like him.
    I understand your comments regarding photos.
    But unfortunately because the recasters are lifting photographs from anywhere and just using them to hawk their dodgy practices. All manufacturers have to do what they can to stop it.
    But if you want to use the image, just contact Stu, I'm sure he will allow you to use it.
