The LDV force just screams 'Dad's Army Home Guard' campaign. Love it. Two very high quality entries.

I really like those Weird machines, very cool...but the setting on the Defence Force is great too!

@Arcturus: are those repainted Dust Tactics walker, they look ace!

@ Northstar: Yes, they're Dust Tactics Walkers. Vehicles are 1/48 Model Kits from Italeri and ICM.

The transfers on the German vehicles look a bit funny, espcialy the numbers on the far left one (212). But great work by both otherwise.

The Chester chaps could take those Huns, easy. Pheasants, armoured walkers, it's all the same to the aristocracy! lol

Two very nice entries, with very different 'feel' to them.
I really like the smooth tones in the VBCW cloth, nicely done.

Two great entries. The LDV really has a charm going, but I just love the Recon Force. Good job, guys!

Great job on both.  Love the grungy tires on the recon force, and the setting for the local resistance force is lovely.

Thanks for all the nice comments and congratulations to Rob Bresnen. An exciting match. First i was a noselength ahead with three votes or so, then you left me far behind. In the end i gained a little ground again but it was not enough. A well deserved victory.
