Gatling Gun
« on: June 08, 2017, 05:22:10 AM »
Good afternoon friends. I want to show you the replenishment of my British colonial army. This is the Gatling machine gun. I want to pay attention to the officer. He is dressed in a mixture of sea and infantry khaki uniforms. An example was the picture.

I think the officer in the picture is wearing riding breeches rather than part of an issued khaki uniform, probably privately purchased (officers had some degree of leeway with regards to how they dressed). It's possible that they've been "liberated" from the Mounted Infantry, but what sort of gentleman would do that? :)

Lovely paint job on your gun and crew, Andrei. Top stuff.

Thanks for that, I'm having a go at some Naval Brigade soon, that Gatling gun is very inspirational.

Yes my friend, you can not do without him. In my team this is the second machine gun. The first is Gardner.

That bearded ginger fellow with the cutlass looks a bit fierce. Looks like he has a bone to pick with the cameraman, too. He's starting a charge all on his own. :)
