It looks like the old Deadlands steam tank, methinks...

Nice to see the dog still there Ray. Didn't spot him at first with your cunning placement.

It's unfortunate to say, but the dog knows no shame...  ;)

Not sure what it looks like, to be honest.  Wouldn't happen to be the pooch to the side of the Brit officer would it?

It is one heckva nice Gurkha force you put on display, I gotta tell you.  Very impressive.

I take it you were referring to the gent in the dapper grey suit and homberg stood to the right of the Tibetan bearer in yellow then.

Westfalia Chris is right. I added the tread protectors for fun...not the least bit historically accurate but at least I shortened the barrel...some great entrys this round! I will try harder next time for a 'bigger' finish.

Yes! It's Mr. Pierre V.F.G. (Vladimir Felix Gonzales)  Hammershield himself,  international insurance claims agent extraordinaire of firm D'Oui, Cheetum & Hauh.

Wow tough choice...

Great flesh tone on your Chinese force Uncle Mike...  l would love to hear what paints you use and how you achieve it! :)

Hey Darkoath, glad you like the paintjob...it is super easy. For the undercoat of the skin I used Bronzed Flesh (G.W.), highlighted with Elf Flesh (also G.W.) which is applied as a heavy drybrush. Then I mixed up a wash consisting of 5 parts Future Floor Wax to 1 part Flesh Wash and 1 part Brown Ink (both also G.W.) Paint and shake and let dry and then I went back and re-highlighted the skin with Elf Flesh, ever so slightly. Also, for a nice addition I run a tiny line of pure Flesh wash in the mouth and eyes to add some nice shadow. Hope that answers your question.
