Hi All,
Whilst I am waiting on the third figure to finish my vignette I decided to make this piece as a homage to Rod Smith. Rod ran a series of articles I discovered in some old Military Modelling magazines over 20 years ago for Zulu war conversions.
Here is my version of his Battery Sergeant Major Royal Artillery 1879.

The base is still drying out so have not undercoated it yet, I plan a future release of this at some point in 120mm.
cheers

Hi Richie

Do like that , nice details on the rank ....of course it would make a nice bust as well with the rank seen

Any chance of seeing Rods original , reference ?

Thanks for sharing

Looking forward to seeing more

Happy benchtime

Hi Mike,
I bought a master figure from Mike Stenzil and I used the head as I just loved the look. I always knew what he was going to be. I rescupted the body after some major surgery, I added new boots, 2 new arms, hands, buttons, accoutraments ect.
Really pleased with how he has turned out.
cheers
Richie
