Thanks, I prefer this of the two, but I'm never going to try a side by side like this again!

Superb. Great modelling and painting. I'm really liking the way you handled the blues and reds on both figures.

Again thank you, I really do need a break from this basic colour scheme though

Must have been stinkin' hot for him in that uniform, in that post!

Well done, Simon! Gotta go on now and see your finished presentation post for the Spanish officer...

Prost!

Another stunning work. Congrats!!!!!!.....

 

[Briggsy]

Brad and Super Anto, thank you gentlemen much appreciated.

Yes Brad any uniform.of this period would be too much in the heat and humidity of places like Tonkin, Philippines or India etc. I don't think concessions to comfort were high on the agenda in those days.

Cheers Simon
