Artillery crew in shorts?

[jp1885]

An appeal to the collective LAF hive mind - what 28mm minis could I use as an artillery crew for my VBCW Blackshorts?
The nearest I've got to is the Artizan 8th Army mortar crew, but there's only three of them (I'd like at least four) and i already have them pencilled in for their proper use as a mortar team!
FYI I'll be using the Great War Miniatures 18pdr field gun.

How about a box of Perry 8th Army? Dirt cheap, and they do make good artillery crew.

Thanks for the tip sir - you're not the only person to recommend them.
I'm loathe to buy a whole box, just for four or five figures but I guess I can use the others for stuff

Brilliant. Scathing satire.
