Here's a pic of an older but only recently photographed figure of mine.

Nice work Roger.

Thank you very much Dave.

Roger.

Nice one, Roger! You should send that one to Steve. The badly chipped white enameled tin cup is super!

All the best,
Dan

Thanks Dan, I've just sent a copy to Steve along with a note letting him know the Russian arrived this morning,so thats me occupied for awhile.
I used to have a mug like that, the idea being I wouldn't break it, unlike the plastic ones from the NAAFI, guess what? I lost it :lol:

Roger.

Yes, you are a seaman, aren't you? [Sorry mate - couldn't help myself! ]

By the by, my brother (ex-USN) takes offense at being called a "sailor" and refers to himself as a now retired "seaman". Sailor, to him, is a landlubber term. Agree?

All the best,
Dan

Don't the Airforce drink out of china teacups? :lol:

Roger.

China cups, glasses, tankards, wooden bowls - you name it - as long as it had the right beverage in it.

Dan

That's something else we have in common besides an obsession with the events of 14-18.

Roger.

looks good

Thank you Damian.

Roger.

Hi Roger
Great figure. But should't his lips be all red and burned after drinking out of one of them d**** tin mugs?
Pete

Cheers Pete. Maybe the title of this piece should be " Strewth! this ****ers hot"

Roger.

Excellent depiction, Roger. Australian light horse? (WWI not my area of expertise.)

Cheers on a super job!

Kyle

Thanks for the comment Kyle. This figure isn't wearing any insignia that would tie him to a specific regiment or battalion so could be any Aussie infantry or dismounted cavalry unit on the Western Front.

Roger.
