Donald where's yer troosers?

 Donald where's yer troosers?


In this case Donald must be the piper, the rest of the 92nd (Gordon) Highlanders are wearing their campaign dress. Donald has retained his kilt and feather bonnet.

These are casts from a conversion inspired by this illustration: -


The conversion and the casting are down to Royston (thanks mate, sorry it took me so long to get round to painting these!)

I guess the reference in the post title might be lost on any non-brits and/or  anyone under the age of 60, so here you go:

  1. Great to see you back and posting I do hope you're much better now.
    A really interesting unit, I don't think I've seen 20mm highlanders in trousers before, but then I guess that's why your mate had to cast them.
    Wishing you all the best going forward.

    1. Thanks Rob, I'm aware that I've completed roughly two units in the last two years. My aspiration is to up that to at least one unit per month, then I might get through the lead-pile in a year or two.
