AHPC X - Benito's Brook - Dulce et decorum est......

Gotta admit, I did struggle a little with Benito's Challenge, then I found this little figure, that I picked up as a freebie at The Other Partizan in 2018.

Its entitled Dulce et decorum est The Great War 1914-1918 and sculpted by Martin Baker

"A figure or vignette related to some brave feat of arms, almost hopeless against impossible odds."

It was the last two words of Benito's Challenge that inspired my choice of a downtrodden and exhausted Tommy .

It was a hard figure to photograph, as he's actually bowing his head in sorrow or weariness?

So I had to angle the figure up so you can view his face. 

I kept the basing plain, no grass tufts or anything other than mud and dirt.

He was a enjoyable if quite solemn figure to paint up and for this reason he shall be put up as another Curtgeld figure. 

Should be a very plain and simple 35 points, which pushed me up to 31st place.
