    Here's an easy conversion I done about a month back, it's a Stormtroopers 1/10 bust of a Gordon Highlander 1914 converted to a Royal Marine Light Infantry 1914 which will stand next to the superb CGS Military Figures RMLI Bugle Boy 1914 ( I will be adding legs to both figures)
    The hat was taken from a spare from the Bugle boy. The collar was all ground off to make it into a standing collar and some other detail was removed all added work was carried out using
    Magi-Sculpt/Duro
    Hope you like him
    Cheers

    That's very nice work there Jimbo.
    Some nice bits added (Lanyard especially) to turn this guy into a different character altogether.
    Where did you get the electron microscope to sculpt the badge?
