    Hi All,
    I saw this piece at Telford on Gordon's stand on a battery operated turntable and it just mesmerised me. The beautiful dynamics captured by Carl Reid of a Lancer in full flight. Well it was, here Gordon take my money.
    I'm sure you Nappy's can appreciate the uniform detail and accoutrements and no I'm not turning. I bought this purely to convert into a 17th Lancer from the Zulu war.
    The whole piece has not only great dynamics but also a lovely balance to it and as soon as I saw it I knew exactly what I was going to do with it.
    Great release mate and well done Carl(y). I love it for what I saw in it and the potential for a great Zulu war piece.:cool: You Nappies won't be disappointed either.:D
    Here are the photo's, for price and delivery contact Gordon directly.
    cheers
    Richie

    Hi all

    Also saw this at Telford. Had to have it. Fortunately my son bought it for me for Christmas. Unfortunately I have to wait until the Bearded Wonder comes next Sunday!

    I only hope that I can do it the justice it deserves. It's wonderful piece

    Richie, I too had to order this one the instant that I laid eyes on it. I don't have your sculpting ability or the courage to convert my lancer, so he will remain a "Nappy", but I look forward to seeing what you do with this beauty.

    Hi Richie

    Cheers for the look at this ( some pics are round the wrong way for some reason) , looks a really good sculpt , it has a bit of a Poste Militaire feel about it I think .

    Looking forward to seeing your conversion

    This figure really does look good. I'll have to think about this one, it may compliment my 200mm lancer. There's s lot of red to paint
