On the work table

 Finished off my Scout section of vbcw gaming-

Vicar, Curate, Verger and seven Scouts including leader.
Might add some static grass or tufts to the bases but not decided yet.
I had bought a pack of Wargames Atlantic WW1 British and decided to use them to mark some VBCW Scottish infantry. Scottish heads came from a Warlord games sprue as well as the anti tank rifle . I have constructed a section so far and am pleased with the look-

    The units are looking good. I like the gloss finish to them.

      The Warlord heads are excellent. I had a few and I used them. The other sections have Brodie helmets or caps in the case of the former Scots Guards.

    Nice figures, and the blue bonnets echo those of the Scots at Marston Moor etc, 300 years before..?
    The 'Scottish Republic' is interesting - does that reflect your sympathies, or do you see them as the 'baddies'? (no need to answer that, if it's a sensitive subject!)

      Thanks and indeed. The booklet is one l contributed to where l came up with the League of St Andrews , see the booklet for more details. The title of the booklet does not reflect my sympathies at all. I am a monarchist and pro union.
      The booklet has interesting ideas on the far right in the vbcw as well as even Jacobites. Here’s a link to a run down on some vbcw factions-

      P.S it is a fascinating “ what if” period and most enjoyable. I like taking real world individuals or groups and running with it ..
