Prince Dimwit

Post by Willz the Wargamer »

THe idea for this figure came from Ken Marshal over on the Fire and Drum forum.
This figure was inspired by Ken's comment. A Spencer Smith officer figure.
Prince Dimwit. 2nd in command of the Prussians forces for the Kenilworth game.

Jean Luc Pickard supped from his glass of fine saumur red wine and jangled two large purses of gold coins.
He had just completed a deal with the private tailor to Prince Dimwit selling him a new uniform.
A fine new blue uniform with red trims, super large cuffs and gold epaulettes, jean Luc had told Prince Dimwit that
large cuffs and big plumed hats were ideal for young commanders, plus the attire would lead to promotion and advancement
in the Kings army. 200 Hundred gold coins for an old hungarian circus ring masters uniform he had won in a game of cards.
"Mrs Miggins another bottle of fine red over here yelled Jean Luc".

It's not steam-powered, BvW. He just does flatulence differently.

I think I had one of his descendants as a platoon commander, Willz.

Having just watched the coronation I see Princes Ann wore a huge hat and giant feather, thus blocking the view of Prince dimwit :lol:
So maybe I will make a model of her.
