After an inspirational loss in September against Marvin, it was on to October. My opponent sent me two copies of a Swedish Grenadier from the Great Northern War. Unfortunately, Remco lost one somehow in transit, so I only received one. But then, the worst happened!
I dropped him during the mould line and extra-plastic removal process. No worries, just retreat my chair from the work space and take a look where the figure is. Uh-oh. The figure was caught under the wheel of the chair and the front of the hat was scraped off by the cement floor of my workroom!
Time for an impromptu two-part epoxy (greenstuff) session. And, I had no idea how to sculpt with greenstuff.
Here is a link to the original duel:

I managed to create again the front of the hat with greenstuff. Then it was a struggle to get a decent photograph of the figure. In the end, it worked out. Gunnar's entry was extremely clever, but my entry won a few more votes. So 10 months in, Mr. X was 5 wins, 2 losses, and 3 ties. It was on to November, and the most lopsided defeat of my term.
