Hi folks.

Running around the bench alongside these https://www.planetfigure.com/posts/1245891/

Following on from my review here https://www.planetfigure.com/threads/colonel-c-hawkins-from-nick-majerus.420053/

All based up , eyes complete primed and basecoated .....might add a bit of the sash

I was afraid that you were going to say that.
 
Good start Kev. I think I would leave the sash off though. Just a personal thing.
 
Hi Kev! Great start on Col. Hawkins! I still have a couple of the bust available here in the U. S. Franco Carcione of masterclass.it/wp/ You may email [email protected] to order in Europe.

Hi Nick

I would certainly recommend this , classic subject and not too complicated

Verbal Update ......finished all lace on jacket and vest , 90 % done on the shoulder cords ( that's what I liked specifically on the bust )

The vest is only a basecolour at the moment and will be closer in co,our to the dark blue jacket

Not going to add a sash !

Looking at the Regt ......Captain Adolphe Libaire, Company E, won the Medal of Honor for his actions during the charge at Antietam.
