SC120/16
Sergeant Masterson, 87th Regiment, Barrosa, 1811
120mm resin and metal - 13 parts
Sculpted by Maurice Corry
Painted by Sang Eon Lee

Stormtrooper Miniatures released this figure at Euromilitaire last year and after seeing it I knew I had to step back to the Napoleonic era and paint this figure. So before getting started on the clean-up I decided to do a review of the kit. Sculpted by the talented Maurice Corry and painted by the Master Sang Eon Lee, the kit is comprised of 11 resin parts and 2 metal rods for a total of 13 parts.

Arriving in a sturdy white cardboard box with the figure inserted inside a bubble wrap envelope the small parts were sealed inside a zip-lok bag to insure against loss during transit. The bottom photograph above shows the parts removed and ready for inspection.

Above you see various views of the head showing the detail Maurice Corry is noted for. A small seam down the back of the hat will easily be removed before priming the figure.

Above you see the main torso showing the detail on all sides of the figure.

Above you see the front and back of the right and left arm and hand, all cast separately.

Above you see several views of the separate cast back pack.

The top photograph shows the two legnths of brass rod used for the standards and the bottom two photographs show the front and back of the standard and spear. The front and back of the sword and scabbard are also shown.

Conclusion:
An excellent kit with minimal clean-up needed. Fantastic detail and dry-fitting of parts where I could. Highly recommended.

Thanks Guy for the close look

Exquisite sculpting and box art

Guy thanks for the review of this stunning figure, Bought it last year at Euro and although I have not painted it yet I enjoy just looking in the box. The castings are superb, and parts just seem to fit together so easily.
One of the best I have seen.

Don

Just an extra comment; the boxart includes a plume on the figure but the painting guide doesn't refer to it, nor is it included in the one I have and seemingly in the review copy.

Geoff

Stu will look forward to seeing you at Euro although our bartering usually ends up in me giving you money. Thats not how the barter system was invented, what about this year I bring you a nice sheep??????????????????
