That Italian camouflage scheme is awesome and crazy, like something out of a science fiction movie.

Mind you, I gather the Brits were experimenting with blue and pink camo at the same time...

Lovely blues on the Union, too.

I'm loving the tanks Keith, I didn't know whether they were historicals or SF models with that colour scheme. Doesn't matter much either as they're very cool :D The Yankees are very well painted as well and the banner fits in well. I especially like the treatment of the trousers :)

They're both very well done!

I did a double take at the camouflage scheme on the tankettes; they look out of this world.

The command for the 20th Maine is spectacular, but I do wonder if they wore the red braid on their kepis.

Either way, tough decision, but I'd give the nod to Chamberlain!

Lovely painting on the ACW figures and a very good flag too, but I'm not sure why the drummer and standard bearer have officer's kepis on..................
They will not force us,
They will stop degrading us,
They will not control us,
We will be victorious!!
