Very, very nice. Can I ask what technique you use to get the darker tooling while keeping the background so light?
Just on a nitpicky note, The cap badge depicts the Royal Tank Regiment 1956 - 1958 but has the King's crown. That would be used pre 1953. In the dates you have indicated the badge would have the Queen's crown. That's not meant to be critical, or detract from the beauty of the work, but it might get picked up on by any military historian who sees it. Just thought it was worth mentioning,
