Great job Maximus! It looks much better than the original Playmobil.

But now you have to use it in a wargame or connect it to soldiers to make it relevant to this board. ;)

In the 1870s a British infantry regiment had a tiger (called Plassey after the battle) as a mascot.  One of the drummers looked after him & used to take him for a walk every day.  That was OK in India but it caused a few problems when the regiment came back to England and Plassey finally ended up in London Zoo.

Nice paintwork, Maximus.  :)

And that was an interesting tiger anecdote also, Dan. You seem to be a bit of an expert on animals with a miltary involvement or connection.  :wink:

After 40 or so years of reading military history you pick up some odd facts along the way and, when I was making model soldiers, I liked regimental mascots etc.

Plus "Plassey the Tiger" was my daughter's favourite bedtime story.
