From what I can see on HLBS site, nothing indicate that this Gun isn’t available...

Cheers! 

Sorry! Never saw that! Thanks! I had assumed it would have been with the WWI stuff.  I don't normally consider heavy artillery as 'equipment'.

Well, it’s a well know fact that the 8” howitzer was design to hunt down dinosaurs and Canadian’s sabre tooth tiger!

Hi all,

I'm fairly new to the forum. I was wanting to attach a photo I took of my BH Austrian Command group painted up but I'm not sure how to do it.  Can anyone help?

cheers

thanks for that, as I'm at work at the moment and these picture hosting sites are locked out ;-) I guess I'll have to wait.

Any pics - painted or unpainted - of the battle Honours WW1 range would be welcome!

in the short term i've included a link to the WAB forum where I've managed to include a photo of my painted BH Austrian command group, I'm experimenting with a new matt varnish which means there not a matt as i would like.  used to use GW Matt Varnish which was quite good but its run out :-( so I'm trying Windsor and Newton and its ok but need something better I think.

Helen,

Did you have or find any BH cavalry that would suit the East Africa conflict? I see that the BH figures are still listed by WarWeb. The BH cavalry appear to be only South African and I'm thinking of making up some Indian Cav as well, so a recommendation of suitable figs here would be great as well.

Paul and Soapy (from what Soaps told me in an e-mail) started designing this range of figures for WW1.
[British
Company Command[WWIBR-01]
In this set I received three officers, two warrant officers and two signallers. A top set that requires little explanation. The flags are very fragile and one I'd to drill out and reapply in the other direction for some difference. May not be shown here

Hi Poiter,

I'd go with the BH South African Cavalry. I'd also use the Aussie LH from the British in Palestine range for EAMR and volunteers along with the Britsh Cavalry in the BEF range for variety.

Other than that I'd go with Brigade Games for all.  I'm about to commence painting 36 Brigade Games Yeomanry! They will suffice for SA Cavalry and British in Palestine. Brigade Games Indian cavalry as you have seen from my photos are really nice. Could do with a character pack with an Indian officer, Bugler etc just like the Yeomanry could do with a character pack.

Hope this helps in some way.

Excellent!! As always a font of knowledge!! Thanks, Lady Helen.

Great paintjob, but the pics look rather squeezed. Any chances you can do a comparison pic with other manufacturers? Preferably BH, GWM, Brigade, Copplestone or Renegade?

Eventually managed to insert a picture in here (hopefully) of BH Austro-Hungarian Command Group.  Its painted as C/O Oberst Jakob Gasiecki and Reg. Adjutant Hauptleute Wilhelm Zabransky of the KuK 40th IR. Matt Varnish Spray isnt quite what I'd like as I'm in the process of trying to find a new one. The Windsor and Newton one used here is ok but still gives a slight shine.

Very nice painting! The bush and flowers are an excellent detail.

[andekmcc]

thanks,  I've attached a couple of other photos of BH Austro-Hungarians lighting isnt very good but gives a reasonable idea of how they look.
