Finished this miniature as HQ-vignette for our Leipzig-game. It's a brilliant miniature by the very talented Scibor from Scibor miniatures which was great fun to paint. I gave him a bit more attention than the average wargame figure.

Really liked this when I first saw it on SD. The cannonball is a fantastic and imaginative addition.

I have the figure but yours is sooooo much better painted.  I also like the cannon ball and the fact that Olde Shorty is standing on a box!

Gorgeous, the ball and box, yes, but the table and bush are reamrkable, too.  The table looks as if it is really made of wood.  :o

A lovely figure.
So well painted, if I only could paint half as well.
Thank you for sharing.
