Below are my first Canadian troops, minis from the Italeri British Infantry Set, which I painted to match the Canadian uniform at the time the best I could. I am planning to play a Bolt Action game in 1/72, with the Canucks facing off against the Wehrmacht somewhere in the outskirts of Ortona. Feel free to comment and all ideas and suggestions are welcome.
Lieutenant Lancaster
Corporal Catlin (me)
Private Guillet
Radio Operator
Lance Corporal Fletcher
And the privates ( Thompson, Boullier, Leroy, Moore, Gallagher, Warnton)
And yes, I give my minis names.
And yes, Private Thompson does not have a Thompson gun.
For any of you that are wondering, the bases and earth and grass are all entirely homemade. The bases are al American or Canadian pennies, the grass is painted cotton and the earth is shredded cork painted a dirt hue.
What do you guys think? All suggestions are welcome!
