A new 28mm GWI green of a Greek Irregular

[Shipka]

Another figure to swell the ranks of Steve Barbers Greek War of Independence range, this one comissioned by my compatriot in crime in Greece. The figure is of a Greek Irregular.

Another order on the cards.

[Shipka]

He could easily be painted as an Albanian in Ottoman service

[Schrumpfkopf]

He could easily be painted as an Albanian in Ottoman service

I've seen so many different images of Albanians, I believe almost everybody with turban and stache could be painted as Albanian. :--)

Excellent miniature btw.
