Oh dear I REALLY do need help! My two projects are cross-fertilizing!
I’ve only gone and created another fusilier…..
I was looking at them all lined up and I decided I really need another standing firing figure, and Fusilier 15 was an obvious candidate so I replaced his right arm and tweaked his left arm
Before
After
The legs of Fusilier 13 came from the
Airfix AWI British Grenadier, but they don’t HAVE to have gaiters, do they, and I’ve got some of those US Marine legs still,…. and I have the spare torso from the British Grenadier that I can think of no good use for, and with a bit of carving the uniform could be made into a Fusilier jacket….
…and before I knew it there was Fusilier 16
Obviously there's quite a bit of work to make him into a fusilier, but I just can't help myself.
The shako and equipment is all easy, especially as I can 3D print some of it- except that it means I have to texture another bloody furry pack! The British Grenadier had one but I’ve already used it. I’m still determined to
USE UP THE STASH and the only one I have left is with the French Imperial Guardsman kit (I know I could sculpt it but I can’t be arsed). So now I have to think of a use for that kit without the pack-shouldn’t be too difficult but it adds another project to the growing list.
So there we are, just as the end was coming into sight....
Cheers
Neil
