Someone noticed this in another thread - I don't think I ever shared it here.

A few years ago i thought I'd experiment with modifying figures, and as it was summer - one-day cricket was on.  So -  ;)


Cricket 1 by David Freeman, on Flickr

The three figures (1/35th)  were arrived at via:

The bowler - modifying a running SAS man

The nice "cherry" ball is a pin head

The Batsman - a tank crewman:

The umpire - a soviet soldier:

Just a bit of fun - enjoy!    :))

Sure looks every bit like the matches I've seen and not managed to understand a bit of.

Great work!

I think the umpire might need to have a word with the bowlers about running on the wicket ?  ;)

Nice work
