Carrying on with the idea of a VSF Norwegian/Swedish force containing an aeronef, how about completely ignoring historical military units & uniforms and instead going for Scandinavian SKY PIRATES (Sky Vikings?).

That's exactly the same idea I had (and posted on the first page), but you have expressed it more eloqquently. Seeing as Sinewgrab doesn't want to do it... I think I might have a crack! :D The pics were great!

I just received the Belgians from Brigade Models, and I have got to say - I love these guys. Good clean lines, not overly complex or decorated, and still characterful. These guys are going to be a joy to paint. The only thing I might do to change them is greenstuff some fur onto their collars to reflect that they serve on an aeronef, but I am not convinced it is necessary. I really wonder if they would let me buy just the seated figures for the maxims to make into ultralight pilots, but I can't find a freaking email address on the website to use to communicate with. I have got to be missing it somehow.

On another note, I have to say that I have mixed feelings on the Reviresco stuff. The guns are superb - beautiful work, minimal flash, very detailed. The sailors, though, are crap. Horrible flashlines, 'squished' features, and unrealistic proportions. I may just bag these guys as a loss I have to take to get these beautiful guns. Ah well.

You are a gentleman, sir, and a fine judge of a horse's arse.
