Funny enough I never have thought to look at the real uniforms themselves to draw from colour schemes. Usually I would reference paintings from WWII historical sites. I do know of a web site that recreates “ALL” main forces uniforms, medals and trinkets. I will post it when I find it.

Buttons! Buttons everywhere!

Jokes aside, this is a great addition to the weekend I think, gives a taste of the real thing that all the models are based on.

Lewis at the medical…”too small for a rifle, give him a catapult.”

John looks the part. Needs some dirt though.

I actually passed that medical with flying colours. They even gave me a Lolli-pop. 🙂

These segments look awesome. Just finished my allied tanks and now onto my US army I like the idea of having it a bit of a painting tutorial as well.

Didn’t realize Warren was that into leather-the cattle in Norther Ireland must be a nervous lot.

Like to see Warren in a Russian uniform.

Warren’s obsessing about buttons? Sounds like he’s about ready to join the legions of Civil War re-enactors we have here in the states. July the 4th is coming up and prime time for those folks in Gettysburg, PA for the anniversary of the battle. Plenty of blue and grey (and their proper buttons) and hoop skirts abound.

Got to love a lot of leather

There have been different US Air Force uniforms the last few years that were never accepted, after often featuring design elements that reminded people too much of German uniforms. Mark down decorative leather belts as another thing the Germans ruined for the rest of us!

Having a handy reenactor for colour checking beats the hell out of relying on google by the looks.
