That's a really nicely painted little truck... and figures too

The Carlist's are painted to represent the Parish of St Martin, on the island of Jersey (in the Channel Islands) and will be part of the Anglican League. I wanted some figures to stand out a bit, and use a splash of colour for the religious over-tures. It also helps that the Empress range has an excellent standard bearer in the Carlist range with a crucifix. I guess the great thing about a ficitonal war (with a historical basing) is that it gives you some licence to push the boundaries a bit.

Sam, the truck is just amazing and I cant wait to see it in action trying to support the militia on the island of Jersey.

Thanks for the clarification Paul! When I had to open a new email account I wasn't able to save the email that you sent to me with the background info.

A few people have used the carlists as anglicans. In the fluff book it says the anglicans like to go a bit OTT on their uniforms.

I love that dixon truck- I might have to get one of those- You never know when your army is going to need a truck load of beer!

Who makes those tough looking ladies in the front row? I thought I knew all the VBCW type minis, but I don't recognise them.

They are Brigade Games Mobster Molls and Dixon Miniatures French Partisans. I've got them pictured together by manufacturer in my blog if you are looking for more specifics.

Thanks. I found the models on the brigade website- I don't think any of the UK sellers carry that range, whcih is why I have never looked at them before. A lot of the Dixon partizans are carrying sten guns, whcih is not right for the '38 period, as far as I know.
