Pendawar Presidency Bodyguard Officer

 I have finished one figure to represent an officer in command of the Pendawar Presidency's Bodyguard for the CinC of the Army of the Pendawar Presidency. You may recall that they are AW Miniatures figures with the very large turbans worn by Native Horse of the period. This figure is a Trent Miniatures' Irish Yeomanry (without carbines) and makes a decent rendition of an officer for the unit with the addition of the tropical helmeted head Trent make. 


I've reached the final base of figures for the Voluntaires de Bykli for Typoo's army, having finished another base of fusiliers and the base of Grenadier company figures. That leaves just 4 figures for the Voltigeur company and the regiment is done.

    A nice addition to the bodyguard unit…
    His shiny helmet should help him stand out… like a target😁

    All the best. Aly

      Thanks Aly, but given my usual shooting dice he's pretty safe!

    Blue with yellow facings and the white lace is a winning combination. Lovely.
    Regards, James
