Title: Painted Boxer Rebellion Japanese
Post by: OSHIROmodels on July 07, 2012, 09:59:51 PM: Finally got round to taking some pictures and doing a blog post although the pictures are woefully inadequate :(

They were painted by a good friend, Brian Phillips who's website is in the linky section of my blog.

I'll be doing some more photography hopefully tomorrow if the weather remains good. I'll also do some scenic shots with the Boxer building :)

cheers

Lovely PJ's on those fellas.

I guess that when I do (finally) get around to doing my own Japanese VSF, I will be needing some reinforcements.
These look like they will be signing up pretty soon.
;D

James, after reading Human Bullets the author was an officer carrying the regimental colour in the early part of the war.

Thank you,

Helen
