2nd Bn Middlesex Regt, 1915

[Viking Bob]

Now completed, I keep saying this, a joy to paint. I have another of TW figures and a few others in the stash from other periods. Have a break for a few days and do some research.
I used the AK Interactive WWI british uniforms paint set, althought the shade was a bit dark for my likeing , the colours seem to be good, although I am no expert.
Thanks for the comments over the last few days, it kept me going.

Looks great, I've also got the AK WW1 paint set and intend to use it soon, but certainly the base colour looks good.

Best research:

Books - Military Mode Publishing, Campaign 1914 (Campaign 1915 coming soon) - pricey but by far the best reference - www.militarymodepublishing.com

Web - www.karkeeweb.com - invaluable!



Well done with the figure, a great result and fitting tribute.

Darren, Housecarl and PedroThanks for the comments,
I will use the link you have given Darren, good resource, I also have friends who reenact with the '10th Essex' , who have some items of original equipment. It's also nice to see how the uniform reacts to certain light conditions. Thanks again , this won't be the last figure from TW
