Sepoy Mutiny Personalities WIP12-Dec-202113-Dec-2021I'll be picking dried superglue off my fingers for the next few days - getting that tulwar hilt guard fixed on was a nightmare as it's just a tiny bit of bent wire.
His cap is a bit on the large side, but that's because of the amount of metal that was left on his head before I slapped on the Milliput filler to form the cap shape - lesson learned though, and I'll bear it in mind when it comes to doing the Sepoy conversions I have planned.
Time to leave this one alone and come back to him next week for a few refinements to the paint job.
That's my entire line up of Sepoy Mutiny personalities almost done now.
The Laurel & Hardy figures at the bottom of this next photo are for a future NW Frontier project.
Meanwhile,
The Bruce DioramaGetting Angus Og off the groundwork was a pure devil of a job. After several days of drying out, the mix of celluclay, fine sand, diluted PVA and dollops of superglue results in something like super-strength miniature concrete. I eventually had to resort to hammering a small screwdriver into the groundwork and using it to lever the figure out of there. While that was going on, I managed to bust off the hand & sword on one of the existing figures....Doh...
Anyway, I then built up the small rise at the back-left with the celluclay/sand mix. Might have to raise it up another 15 ~ 20mm, but there's no point in me doing anything more with the additional miniature concrete until The Bruce figure gets delivered and I work out exactly where to locate him and Angus.
