Lee Sharpe, Torquay

(Click to enlarge)

Here's Lee Sharpe in his Torquay days.

I'm gonna be honest: I don't know if Sharpe had the beard at Torquay (I don't really remember him ever having one, tbh) and I don't know if he wore number 11 for them.

(The recipient of this figure was happy enough for it to have both of these)

I couldn't even find a picture of him in Torquay colours, other than this one!

Not the clearest! Thank goodness for the dates section on Sharpe's Wikipedia, and that wonderful site; Historical kits!

Unfortunately, this is the only picture I have of this repaint, as I finished it when I was away from home, and didn't have my camera with me.

Tho it's a little sketchy here, in the end, I was very happy with the neatness of the stripes, considering how thin they are.

The Torquay badges show up nicely, and the back has a number nine, but no name, as was the style at the time!

Note a few Le Tisses looking on, as well as a sneak preview of John Colby, and another unfinished repaint that you'll see soon!

Here's a pic of the kit, for comparison:
