Lanchester Tommy

A pleasant day was spent yesterday painting the tommy to go with the lanchester. I also knocked up some WW1 era rations to go with him. I found lots of info regarding rations on the Internet as there are firms that produce reproduction rations and packaging for re-enactors. Very handy for us modellers.

For the figure I used vallejo panzer aces 317 British tank crew & 321 highlight British tank crew for the uniform as well as a spot of black for the shadows. He painted up really well and the sculpting of the figure really pops once painted. Rations include a tin of corned beef, jam and biscuits as well as a tommy cooker. Essential for that cup of char!
