WW1 Uniforms
« on: 26 April 2008, 06:20:49 AM »
Hi!

At Salute I bought several Late War British packs from Great War Miniatures. Now, I want to paint them, but I have no Osprey or Blandford books where I can see a proper picture of the colours used in their uniforms.

Who can direct me to a site where they have full colour pictures of British soldiers from WW1? My Google-fu is not so strong, so I couldn't find anything useful.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers
Jase

FWIW, I have a Blandford (I think) title at home and some of the colors don't deem very accurate to me anyway.
