Hello All,
This is a start on a redcross member with casualty and four legged friend carrying wounded at the ill fated campaign at Gallipoli.
Still a way to go.
Comments welcome.

Hi Andy - would this be based on Simpson, "The man with a donkey"? looks brilliant, so far
(y)



Absolutely! What a cracking miniature will this marvel become! With so many hundreds, not to say thousands, of exceptional military art produced in the 20's and 30's of the past century, Andy hitted the nail in the head choosing this striking watercolor:


man-with-the-donkeyNZ.jpg


(that as a matter of fact, is based in a photo as well) Now, it's time to welcome the figurine rendering of this striking scene! (y)
 
I'm looking forward to this rendition of Simpson and Murphy. A posthumous VC would have been in order considering Simpson's actions at Gallipoli.

Happy New Year to all.

Looks like you beat me to the draw, Andy :LOL:. I always wanted to do a similar scene myself after I read about Simpson and Murphy in the book "Animal Heroes" ;).
Anyways, Awesome progress so far, my friend (y)(y)(y)(y)(y)! I will certainly be following this with full interest :p.
Cheers!
Kenneth.

(P.S. In case you're wondering, I am still waiting for the WW1 Stretcher Party kit that you'd sent me awhile back :oops:. Looks like it'll be a late Christmas present for me then o_O)
