Army White cyclists

Over time I have been collecting these-
I have found them at Tiger and at Waterstons of late.I decided to combine them with some 1/32 Airfix mountain troops ( given a milliput rucksack and paint job) to make some Army White cyclists.Here they are almost finished-

I am pleased with the result and have quite a few clips left...

Little Cold Wars etc

I have become interested in Paul & Tim's new Littlecoldwars  venture into gaming the Cold War.here is a link to their splendid Yahoo Group-
https://uk.groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/Littlecoldwars/info

Well worth popping over to and joining up.
Here are some 1960s Army Red/White,sorry Swiss pictures to encourage you-




 Oh nearly forgot to mention I have been collecting some figures for Army Red (circa 1900) and the project/sub-project/army is moving forward too. Rain,cold and wind this week have made we doubt if I will get much alfresco gaming in but I remain hopeful...

Out of the blue it's Army Red...

A combination of looking at old prints,fine weather here in the duchy and ebay trawling has seen me succumb to Army Red! I bought some dismounted Cherilea Blues & Royals yesterday and am bidding for some Herald highlanders...I hope to add plastic Guuaarrdds as and when. My new patio area will hopefully see some action between Army Red & Army Red/White this summer. Anyone knowing of cheap sources for Army Red chaps let me know...

Spring

Spring arrives in the Duchy and the cavalry take advantage of fine weather.
They explore the new additions to the garden.
As I can't find Paul's rules on the shelves today these will have to do for the photograph...
