It would have to be an Oxfordshire regiment too, of course. Led by Corporal Carrol.  ;D

There's an Alice in Wonderland museum (and tea shop) in Oxford!!!  :D

I am afraid not - I was in a mad scientists rush mode, and didn't take any pictures at all until it was painted.

I went with yellow because she is a Brit, and they tended to paint their gunboats' stacks very close to that shade of yellow - that's why she had a red bottom, too. Alice is still a proper British citizen, after all. The picture seems to have washed out the highlighting on the yellow, though.

I am glad y'all like it though - compliments are always welcome.  :D

Ahhh.  This explains it.  Please Pardon my ignorance.  ;).  It is a lovely model still.
This is my boomstick!

Whoa! Blast from the past here - the head was an amalgamation of sponson bits from a GW tank, a toy tank body, some random GW bits from who knows where, and custom cut ears.

That is sheer brilliance! lol lol lol

I love it!
I made a walker for my Catachan 40k army to transport my Ogryns.
Wish I had seen this first, would have loved to seen the GW staffers facers when that turned up on the table!
My walker looks more like a long-legged tortoise- Maybe I could race ya?  ;)

May I suggest painting the yellow bits metallic?

But it is a WHITE rabbit in the story, isn't it...?
