I've started painting up some of the Musketeer Miniatures 'British Milita' for our 1940 Operation Sealion games. They will make up the Market Blandings LDV to supplement the Foundry figures I already have.

Jeeves and Wooster, of course.

The lengths that Lord Emsworth will go to protect his prize pig, Germans beware!

Very nice. Especially like the tartan on the plus fours.

I suppose they aren't dress like the grenadier guards, but they do look the part for meeting the enemy for a cup of tea.

Great looking bunch there, well done Dave.

Jeeves and Wooster, I love it. Knowing our perfect Jeeves, I'm sure that each bullet in the Lewis gun has been polished to an appropiate shine.

Loving Bertie's trousers, though I doubt Jeeves approves. It's simply not the thing for afternoon combat, wot?

I think the suit is okay for the country, but you know that the tie will not survive the next laundry day...........

Nice work there!

I am surprised that this is the first time the 'VBCW' figures have turned up in the guise of Sealionesque militia/LDV though. I'd have imagined that an invasion in 1940 would have seen far more volunteers come forward than there were uniforms for them, and with a few exceptions, the IWI and other Interwar figures would be ideal.

Colonel Blimp will however be issuing a reprimand to their CO as they are all 'out of uniform' and in breach of the Geneva Convention.

Wonderful stuff.

God help the invading Hun when Aunt Agatha comes into play. "When Aunt Agatha wants you to do a thing you do it, or else you find yourself wondering why those fellows in the olden days made such a fuss when they had trouble with the Spanish Inquisition."

And please say that there'll be a Gussie Fink-Nottle, to constantly lose morale tests and get captured by the Germans!
