Cracking stuff! Doesn't someone do Austro-Hungarian troops for the Italian campaign?

Scarab do a more comprehensive range

The BG-WIWH packs - we currently have 11 packs of Austro-Hungarians in our range.

Quick update..

Romfell has been cast and first production run is on its way to me. I expect to receive it on or around Tuesday, after which point it will be available for purchase:)

Excellent news.  By the way, the Scarab miniature figures, though quite nice, are enormous.  30mm at least, and look very odd next to Copplestone figures.

I purchased a sample pack of the Scarab Miniatures Austro-Hungarians when I also purchased my Great War Miniatures LW Germans from them.  I really like these.  The sculpts have great personality and I actually like the fact that alot of them have fixed bayonets which are a bit lacking in the other ranges.  I own Renegade and Great War Miniatures LW Germans and they fit in very nicely with those size wise.  I plan to get more and also purchase their LW French.  Also I should mention the great service I have had from ordering from Scarab.  Two orders so far and they arrived well packed and fairly quickly considering they had to cross the pond!

Oh and so as not to steal Doc's post...

Great news about the Romfell!  I can't wait to be able to order a couple!

This is the year of the armored cars!

Is there any store in the UK or Europe to sell the Romfell car ?

[Doc Twilight]

No distributors. I sell direct only at the moment.

My two Romfell's arrived this morning - superb work Doc!  Very nice clean castings and and easy to make! other manufactureres take note!  Bit of a sting in the tail was £15 customs duty I had to pay - never had that from the US before!!  Cracking work.  Now to figure out how/what to paint them!!!

Does anyone know what colours AH armoured vehicles were painted???

[Tomsche]

Oooh, thats a very nice car.  Any plans on making anything italian in the (near) future?

Landships only has b&w photos:

but they look pretty dark, maybe even black.  Make sure you get that cool looking cross on it, though!
