This is the 30mm flat that started life as a trooper of 3rd Skinners Horse. The moral of that story is do your research, then check it before reaching for the brushes.

A couple more days work should see this one finished.

Roger.

Nice work! Love the color of the horse

Nice Roger-will you make Darlington this year?......Keith

Nice colors Roger,and the horse looks amazing

Thank you everyone, the colour of the horse was one of those experiments that turned out ok in the end.
Keith, unfortunately I'll be at work for this years S&L.
Carl, if you mean what is the difference between the uniforms of 3rd Skinners & 6th the 6th has the red cuff piping. I'll probably paint another as 3rd Skinners after sanding off the engraved piping. The other minor differences can be sorted out with a paint brush.

Roger.

Very good work Roger.
I buyed this weekend two flats at our show. The Bristisch Flat Society was very informative. So buyed two at there stand.....it cost my only € 2,-.....
Now i got to look for the right colors.

Thank you Marc.
I'm really pleased you are giving flats another try. If you need any advice please ask. I'm far from being an expert but I'll do my best to help you out. Which figures did you get?

Roger.

Roger very nicely done and that red cuff piping will get you everytime mate. looking forward to seeing the rest.

Cheers Ken

Cheers ken, I might have got away without anyone noticing but then I'd know and it would have kept me awake at night and then there's the worry of an expert lurking ready to pounce

Roger.

Lol, cheers Carl, glad I noticed before you pounced.

It was from the 1 Euro case. One have a pipe in his mouth and looks a high placed officer. The other one looks like napoleon in coronation robe.
Gonna post some pic's to you this evening.

Marc

Looking forward to seeing what you bought Marc and for a Euro each a bargain!
