SECTION 14

THE REGIMENT IN ART

 

A large part of this section, is artistic composition, done without the assistance of such programmes as "Photoshop", etc,

is fairly difficult & time robbing. So please ask before you steal & break the copyright rules. - No !...you are right !.....the Regiment doesn't belong to me !.....but these pictures do in their digital form. 

They are free to re-use if the artist & source is stated........Especially the "Doodles" are a part of the legacy of the 20 years of dedication to this Regimental website of the 35th of Foot, The Royal Sussex Regiment, by a single person..........Thanks
