Post by Purplethistle »

Airfix 54mm Polish Lancer gets converted to Flashy as illustrated in the serialised version of Flashman at The Charge in Playboy in 1973.......so I read on Google ;-)

I had to look twice -- no at the whole display -- to figure out that was your scene and not an actual cover shot !!

That's Flashman all right -- grab the woman (preferably with money or other portable assets) and charge hell for leather away from any fighting!

Excellent work, and the cover as a backdrop is extremely effective. any chance of some more photos from different angles?

Your wish is my command Tarkas, some taken before the backdrop was added. :-D

Outstanding bit of modelling. I loved the Flashman books.
