Thanks Calimero.  I have some Gripping Beast WWI Brits that I'm working on right now and will be another large addition to the customer's BUF forces.

Nice work. One small query - shouldn't the Vickers MGs be loaded from the other side? That's the way round I've done the model from various period photos.

Damn it.  :-[  I looked at pictures before assembling the model and still did it backwards.

That's the great thing about playing non-historical historicals: if you can justify it, it's correct!  ;)

It's a really nice VBCW army. BTW, I really like how you painted the Black uniforms. Great work once again 8)

Thanks!  I always worry I over-do the grey on the uniforms, but when I look at real black clothing it always has lots of grey (depending on material that is).

LOVE that first car.  The suspension looks a little high, but very nice anyway.

Thank you!  :) That's correct, they are from BEF.  The top vehicle is the  kfz. 13 Adler Armoured car and the bottom vehicle is British Morris CS9 LAC.
lovely stuff!

Matt


Thanks Matt!  :)
