    Hi Guys,

    Here are a few images of a piece I sculpted ages ago for Stormtrooper.
    Stu has decided to launch it at Euro, and asked me to post a few preview images.

    As you can see its a 75mm figure of an Officer of the light Company, 1st Foot Guards.
    It's a pretty colourful subject, with the standard red coat, but Indian regalia. Buckskins etc.

    I hope you like him.

    As always thanks for looking, and you support!

    I'm not too sure, maybe if you send Stuart a message he will be able to help.

    Another great sculpt from Carl. With his prolific range of tasty creations, he really needs to start a "figure of the month club" subscription service!

    Great figure. I love the AWI period. Is the figure based on a painting or print? I am intrigued by the hat. Not seen that type before in the 1770s/80s.

    Hi Mr Reid, Any chance of this being done in 120mm, if you do I promise to buy the day you release it.

    Tim, I'm no expert, but I think the hat is a Royal Navy one of that period. As I say, I stand to be corrected.
    Great figure !

    Hello, here is the uniform reference (at the bottom right).
    I have this figure and I can tell you it is a masterpiece again from Carl Reid and Stormtroopers.

    Excellent. Certainly something different. I shall look forward to this figure. Where is this print from? A book?

    Hi Ben,

    Stu sent me an old Military Modelling magazine. The images were in there. I think it's an old Rick Scollings print.

    Thank Malc!

    Stuart has no plans to release it in 120mm. But you never know, maybe one day!
