Eccentric British Officer
« on: May 23, 2013, 09:56:32 AM »
Whilst doing my Home Guard Bits I've been messing about with a Warlord BA plastic figure.
I slightly repositioned the body & used a metal head wearing Tam O' Shanter hat.
I armed him with an old Basket hilt sword that I had in the Bits Box & another of the fantastic shotguns from James.
I've left the webbing ammo pouches, so that he can carry more cartrides & the etrenchig tool as you can never a have too many close combat weapons!
Anyway here's the piccies.
I've supposedly painted him as the 52nd Lowland Infantry Div.



Don't what Im going to do with him now though,
as I already have enough officers for my SAS & I'm not going to do another British Army.

Above is  a copy of whats on the Blog, there's a couple more pictures over there though

Awesome work, I once did a version of "Fighting Mad" Jack Churchill for Secrets of the Third Reich

What a great figure.  Full of character and very distinctive.  Nicely done conversion.
