This figure is listed in the Hinchliffe 1976 catalogue as PF21:
He was a joy to paint and will take his place amongst my 25mm French armies. I have a number of the Hinchliffe personalities and plan to paint them from time to time.

Nice!
ReplyDeleteThanks Matt. I have a few more to do.
DeleteI have the Hinton Hunt one which is one of my favourite figures but this is very nice too!
ReplyDeleteThe HH personalty figures are also very nice, but a little small when alongside my 25mm armies.
DeleteThanks Matt and Stryker. For some reason the blog will not allow me to use the reply button next to your comments. This blog has a mind of its own and occasionally does strange things!
