Yet he happily released Czechs although White Russians would have worked quite well.

Actually the Bolsheviks are an even better match, no need to shave off shoulder boards. I use them as Czechs. 'Twas a strange choice.

I just wish he would do anything, particularly Glory of the Sun King.

Seems like we have at least two heart felt wishes in common. Lovely looking car the P1800, unless of course you count the estate version. I know Swedes have a reputation for being profoundly practical folk but who thought a station wagon version of a classic sports car was a good idea?

BTW is that the the colour you were after?

In Germany we call it 'Schneewittchensarg' (Snowwhite Coffin)

I have corrected your statement

Does anyone know if the Black Army Japanese are a good match with Copplestone? I'd prefer to pit them against my (very) few Chinese warlord figures (18 figures!! Woohoo! This economy sux!!) if they match. Also, any on-line painting guides for the Japanese at this time?

Thanks for your reply!

Hmmm. They are a good match for pulp figures. I haven't compared them to Copplestone, but the copplestone chinese I had, seemed rather big minis compared to most ranges.

Would love to see more BOB releases from Copplestone - mounted White officers would be nice.

I'm with you on that! Anything BoB for me, Copplestone does an amazing job!

Wouldn't they look like 55 Days in Peking Boxer Rebellion?

Umm, I don't think so, but I could be wrong.

I'm talking about the Japanese embassy security guards defending the embassy not the rebels. No?

Oh you mean the buildings. Maybe...Someone with more knowledge may come along and enlighten us!

abelp01 · « **Reply #27 on:** October 21, 2010, 12:19:16 AM »

I dunno...I would think the uniforms would be different in the '20's than those during the Boxer Rebellion. I really don't know?!?

carlos marighela · « **Reply #28 on:** October 21, 2010, 06:19:27 AM »

Different uniforms by the RCW period. take a look at the Lanships website, it has a reprint of an article on the Japanese army in the Great War which has a number of useful b&w uniform plates.

The Japanese changed from the typical blue/white to kharki in about 1905. When I've got more time I'll put a bit more info here.

cheers
