Austrian General Staff Officer

[FredG]

I was preparing to start painting today and this po-faced individual rode up and demanded to be brought forward in the queue.





Not wanting to disappoint an Officer I immediately stuck a 0.9mm drill bit up his rear and sat him on a cocktail stick.

He arrived as a Regimental Colonel so I've promoted him to a General Staff Officer, that'll teach him

The state of play so far is





He's actually wearing red trousers, just that his coat isn't turned back.

BTW that isn't blood on the cocktail stick, it's off his red trousers

Looks like he has nasty piles...........oh, his trousers.

[FredG]

His farmers are just fine

The saddleclothe will camouflage that little nasty error from Fred the impaler I think!

Otherwise he looks like a fine officer!
