Roman Cornicer

This is the Cornicer that appeared in the Miniature Figurines 72/73 catalogue as PB 114 - the fact that he's Roman is taken as read but I have added it to the title for the sake of clarity. 

This figure may have been a carry over from the earlier 'S' range AR code because it is not obviously derived from the equivalent illustration 14 in the first edition of Armies and Enemies of Imperial Rome - which lacks a cingulum and has a rather different cornu that is supported rather differently over the right shoulder. Pleased to hear from anyone who has the AR version to compare it with. 

Unlike most other models in this range there is no code number on the base (at least not on the examples I have). 

I just took the two pics of this chap - front and back - which does the job.
