    Hi Guys just finished this one for the box art.Another fantastic sculpt from Carl Reid.The biggest challenge on this one was the Standard, the Union Jack is sculpted on along with some indication of the shield and crown,all the rest is freehand.A very enjoyable project. Here are some more photos from different angles.The figure is 75mm and white metal.

    Just seen the completed figure and it is stunning. The painting David put into this is well up to his usual high standard. The uniform is wonderfully painted and the face is a work of art. The Kings Standard took him a while and when I was examining it the battle honours just seem to jump out at you.
    A great casting and some wonderful painting, I am sure Imperial Gallery will be very pleased with this.
