These are the Brits for my fictitous campaign so far. They are going to have their work cut out as they are extremely outnumbered by my Chinese who have another 70 reinforcements on the way thanks to the Foundry sale.

Smashin'.

Brave lads, sacrificing all to keep China British, and return home laden with fireworks and prawn crackers. I approve.

Those are rather good, Svennn. Nice to see these spiffing figures deployed to a different theatre.  :)

The red facings work really well on the khaki tunics and the Officer's patrol jacket is particularly good work.

Can't wait to see the hordes of Chinese  :D

That unit that Svenn did is rather splendid! I´m totally not up on my colonial uniforms (which I should be given our current T&T work schedule *hint hint*), but that combination of Khaki, Red and Dark Blue is very fetching.
