    Hi guys !
    Got a little " bored " working on my latest desert oasis vignette so I decided to create another figure to join the group. It's a Somalian " dubati " or " white turban " colonial trooper with his pet lizard. The head and feet are from Historex and the hands from Hornet. The rest is my usual putty/paper-clip mix. Thanks for looking and cheers !
    Kenneth ;).

    Kenneth, This is probably one of your best figures. The sculptinh looks clean the cloth to scale. Super job.~Gary

    Kenneth - Great!!! This is going to be a big diorama before you are finished with it!!

    My only critique is I would sand the putties flat. They appear a bit rounded in the photos. A small thing that will take you a few minutes.

    All the best,
    Dan

    Nicely done Kenneth. I really like the "somalian" look of his face. Great work indeed.

    Thanks, Dan ! Yes, it'll certainly be a " monster " of sorts once it's finally done ;). Your point about the puttees being a little " rounded " is duly noted and rectified. Thanks and cheers !

    I'm glad you liked the " look " of the figure, Xenofon ! It was a really tough call trying to achieve the facial expression of the Somalian people of that era. Thanks for the encouragement, my friend :) !
