VSF Cherry Picker
« on: August 31, 2012, 09:43:47 PM »
Captain Archibald Huttless of the 11th Hussars, figure fro Brigade Games new Steampunk range sculpted by the talented Mr. Paul Hicks. Not the start of a new project, just couldn't resist them, hope that they may appear in our Victorian pulp games over at GHQ at some point in the future though.

Lovely work, sir!  :-* The very model of a dashing hussar, off to have a crack at the enemies of the Queen (Gawd bless 'Er!)  ;)

Reminds me of the scene in Charge of the Light Brigade with Trevor Howard as Colonel of the fashionable Cherry pickers wearing a corset and having to be forced into those tight breeches.  I assume that this would affect your character's movement and his usually deep voice?  :D

Interesting mini (though the pose is slightly odd: the corset, maybe?), great paintjob. But I thought I've read 'Cherry Potter', hence... :D
