Love those 24th Foot, especially since it features my favourite film character on the right, I can almost hear him shouting 'At 100 yards.....Volleyfire!!!'  ;D

Those old Space Marines are cool. It's great to see so many treasures here.  But I'm afraid this time the colors do it for me...

I don't think I've ever seen better painted Colonials.  First class.  :o

I'm with Joroas, best colonials I've ever seen.  I usually only see colours like those in my dreams.  Brilliant.

I'm impressed tremendously with both entries... Rogue Trader goodness vs un-fathomable colors!

Richard... I would love to hear your red recipe... As well as how you do
Stuble.  Those are some of the. Est figures we've seen from you... Bar none... IMO.

Cheers to you both!

Button Counter alert:  :o


Warned you:  :o




In real life officers' tunics would be scarlet and the O/Rs' a conspicuously duller red and sergeant's sashes were red, officers had crimson, as, of course, they still do in the British army.  ::) ::)
