Hi All,
I have just recieved these from one of our club member's Ray who kindly photographed some of the member's models at our last meet and here's mine to share with you. Ray is a professional photographer by trade, just shows you what a good photograph can do. Hope you like.
cheers

Hi Roger,
Yes you missed an opportunity, but I think Ray will do another session in the future. He did give me one good tip........don't pick a bloody camera up Richie

Hi Dennis,
I really enjoyed the night mate, I can't believe what a job Ray has done on my figures even the wife got a nice surprise when see saw the photo's. Won't be able to make the next club meet mate, I'm travelling down to Telford on that day.
cheers

Hi Don,
Thanks mate, it takes me all my time just to get a couple of half decent shots in focus.

Richie, saw the movie Zulu (again) yesterday, well I spend a lot of time sleeping and watching TV. One thing I noticed was that the uniform facing colours seemed black or almost black, It could have been a very deep green but I thought 24th wore a bright green on colours and cuffs.
Can you, as my resident 24th expert clear this up for me. Dont worry if you hav'nt seen Zulu for a while, it will be back on TV in only a few weeks.

Hi Don,
Still a great film but don't use the film for uniform reference. It depends on which copy of the movie you watch to how the colour of the greens appear, my copy is the same as yours. If you want any reference in the future just PM me.
cheers
Richie

 

[Don]

Thanks Richie. Every little helps.

They look like they do in the resin.
Much better representation.

These look great Ritchie. I've always been impressed in the way you stick to your 'theme' and have built an impressive range of stock and unique pieces.
All backed up by an obvious in depth knowledge of the subject.
The photos are great but there's a saying 'you can't polish a turd' so the quality has to be there in the first place.
Cheers
Derek

Still A Great Film even given the inaccuracies.....has there ever been a better depiction of a Victorian Senior NCO than Nigel Green.....Although Bob Hoskins in Zulu Dawn came close......"Save those Guns"......LOL

I have to say Mike French made a Brilliant Zulu but I've never seen one painted!

Nice to see some of the collection photographed up nicely, Ray had better have a large memory card if he is doing your whole Zulu collection mate
They look great
