Farmer Giles

Following on from yesterdays painting of the Chard character model from Empress I decided to paint the Hook model from the same pack like a farmer or similar militia character. I've painted him so that he's wearing a khaki army shirt open over his shirt and braces.

I really like how he turned out, and think the whole model looks very farmer like. I was tempted to remove the rifle and exchange it for a pitchfork but alas I didn't have one to hand and wasn't confident that my modelling skills could stretch to green stuffing a pitchfork.
