Sharpey... get yer mullet sorted!!!
« on: 02 May 2018, 07:50:40 PM »
A conundrum of the most vexing has reared it's ugly bonce in the Emporium. I'm about to get some paint on Major Sharpe of the 95th Rifles, but what to do about his flowing locks? They should be dark brown/black to be fair, but this seems to have been forgotten these days.. not least by the bloke wot wrote it!
So do I slavishly follow fashion and give the good Major a blonde rinse like that common Seen Bean fellow, or paint him 'properly'?

Mr. Bean is the definitive Sharpe! Sod the books.


You really want to be one of those "but in the books... the books are better" people? We've got too many of them around here as it is.* lol






*I should know, I'm one of them when it comes to books I actually give a shit about.  ;)

Harry, you are a rich man. Have two, one dark & one blonde. Use which ever you like, see how the mood take you.
You could even have a scenario where his evil twin arrives on table.

If it's the Brigade games figure by Paul Hicks then I think he should be painted to look like Sean Bean as thats who the figure is sculpted on IMHO, however Harry they're your toys so they got to look right to your minds eye.
I'm just basing mine up and I hope to have him posted on here soon and he has a lovely light brown barnet lol

There are two Sharpes. Which one does the name call up for you?
The laws of probability do not apply to my dice in wargames or to my finesses in bridge.

I'm from Sheffield, so I suppose in the end...
There can only be one...
