Today is St David’s Day and I completed these broken figures as members of the Combrogi Guards Regiment from Albion-
The officer on the left came without a right arm but with some original paint. I added a new sword arm from my spares box and touched up his paintwork prior to varnishing. The regimental mascot and holder in the centre came headless and battered about. He had been a zoo keeper. I gave him a new head and painted him as a guardsman holding an exotic mascot got when campaigning abroad and overseas. The final figure was missing an arm when he arrived and again he was fitted out with one from the spares box prior to painting. Again I enjoyed repairing these especially the mascot bearer.
Your work was brilliant. It is truly wonderful to create something new and useful from something that had been damaged.
