Great War Canadian Vickers Team
The figures are from Great
War Miniatures.
This team is meant to be from the 7th Company, 3rd
Canadian Machine-Gun Battalion. (They should have a small green arrow above the
grey patch, but I forgot to paint it…)
Coming soon on Tim’s Miniature Wargaming Blog:
There’s a lot of stuff
cluttering my workbench at the moment. I’m going to have to have a tidy up
pretty soon.
Next? Could be Greeks. Could be
Romans. Could be Medievals for Lion
Rampant. Could be more Canadians for the Vimy
Project (I’ve been having a look at things and I need to paint about two
battalions a month until March 2017 to get them all done in time… So I’d best
get cracking on those!).

Very nice :)
ReplyDeleteNice to see some WW1 projects on the go!
Thanks Mike! There will be a lot more Great War stuff coming up on here in the weeks/months/YEARS ahead. Stay tuned!
DeleteThey look great, Tim. Either ready to stop Jerry in his tracks or have a brew (my Dad trained on Vickers guns and told me that when they were ready for tea, they would fire off a belt or two and then drain the water from the cooling jacket around the barrel to make tea with. :) Looking forward to seeing more Canadians. Two battalions a month is a fairly high bar to clear!
ReplyDeleteThanks Padre!
DeleteI'd heard about gunners doing the same as well - or perhaps I read it in a Charley's War comic...?
There will be some Germans in that mix of two battalions a month as well!
BRAVO!
ReplyDeleteThanks KurdocK!
