    This is a figure I did over the Christmas holiday (Didn't drink very much this year!)
    It is in progress as there are a few things to change yet (I changed the arms once already)
    Apologies for the skankey fotos, I'll do some proper ones once it's completed
    Cheers
    Pete

    Hey thank you chaps!
    I must stress that this is still a wip and there will be a few more changes to it. I will invest in a good camera when I get the chance
    It seems that the pics here don't show what it really looks like in the putty as they say!

    If this were to become a commercial figure, I would buy one immediately, based only upon these two images.
    Can I say it any plainer than that?

    Once it's finished I do think a mould can be made.
    Thank you all for making my mind up about this

    No disrespect to anyone else that sculpts ACW figures commcially on this forum, but this is the best depcition of a soldier from that period that I have ever seen (or at least it would be if t weren't 200mm;):whistle::LOL:). I gotta have one of either version, don't matter to me. It really reminds me of the statues on ACW monuments throughout my life. The only nit to pick, is the bayonet is backwards.
