Details
Micks Mick's Sgt 6th Inniskilling Dragoon Sth Africa 1901
'V' Bust . 1/9th Scale
The original Sculpt was by Offo.
Re worked into a V Bust by Tommie Worton.
Available from Ellies Miniatures.

This bust is depicted in khaki Field Service Dress carrying a Lee Enfield Cavalry Carbine. Although this bust is entitled Sgt 6th Inniskilling Dragoon. Because this is a V Bust the Regimental Badge on the right sleeve that denotes his Rgt is missing, but the original bust showns this insignia. So infact you could make him almost any Regiment.
The bust is made up of two parts the head and body , along with the helmet as the second part.



Thanks for looking all help and advise welcome.

Greetings.
Moved along a little, Bandolier about done a few more washes when the tunic is finished.
Tunic Base coat applied with a mix of Beige and a little spot of Khaki I thought I would give it that washed out bleached look.
The helmet cover I have made slightly darker as it is only a cover. Comments and advice on this welcome.


Thanks for looking.
Mick
