Partizan 2018... More stuff.

Greetings...


A bunch of stuff for our game...


First off Dave has been making a hanger...







Next up a broken Fokker...





I have finished 6 more British cavalry...








As it turns out King Edwards Horse fought on foot in this engagement...doh!


I will still use them... with luck we will have some dismounted cavalry in time for the game...


I have also made a couple of vignettes for even more table dressing...




I've found a dodgy looking geezer...




That way...




 A line up...


Hopefully I will find time to do more... as they are quite fun.


Last post Stuart Insch and Mark Strachen made comments about the various flight simulators from the WW1...
This fired my curiosity...with a bit of digging I have found a few photo's on line...


I am not sure if we will have time to make any .. but they are interesting in their own right anyway...





This is the one Mark mentioned ... The Antoinette simulator.










You can almost see the hand of Heath Robinson in these...

This is a rather torturous looking device from America...


 The last one is post war... but I rather like it...


All the best  Aly

Partizan 2018... More Portugeuse and 'table dressing'

I have painted some more Portuguese infantry...





I have painted a few men with Drab coloured helmets and left a few with British style water bottles to reflect the source of supply for the Portuguese army in 1918...


 The Miniatures are Great War Miniatures...

The paints are Wargames Foundry and Citadel...

Absolutely beautiful ....
