Colonial Brits.

I received my Armies In Plastic colonials from Transport Models the other day and have painted ten of the Brits.

I painted them in glossy toy soldier style with rosy red cheeks.


I intend to paint some Pathans next so I could play some skirmishes while I paint the rest.

Happy days!.

      Thanks Maudlin Jack, the paintwork is not great, I have missed a few bits that show up in close up. But who cares?, they are just toys after all.
      Regards,
      Paul.

    Nice ruddy faced figures. Transport Models offer a good service I recall.

    These have come up really well, the faces are most effective.

      Thanks KEV, they are probably not accurate for the NWF but they were cheap.

    Stop tempting me. I'm half way through a 1/72 East Africa project. I can't start another: can I?

      Thank you Dean, I am getting quite partial to the larger scale figures.
      Regards,
