Nice work Al, Americans though? What's wrong? did you run out of British Figs?

Hi Pat,
Thanks, no plenty of Brits, but I needed a couple of Yanks to try out some LifeColor paints I'd been asked to review and I thought the best way to do it would be build a couple of figures to try them out on.
The Review should be up any day soon.
I got these guys several years ago with a view to using them in one of the LCs but then realised they had the wrong type of uniforms. It's a nice set though, but I will repleace the heads as the helmet detail is poor.

Hey Al,
A couple of good Colonials you've done there !!!
I like the look of these LifeColour acrylics.
Will have to try and pick some up.
Cheers

Hi John,
Thanks, they made a nice change but the Brit Production Line is still going strong .
It will be interesting to see if they do a set for Britush/Commonwealth Troops in the future.

Hey Al,
They appear to have quite the range of paint sets.
Hopefully they'll get around to doing a set for British/Commonwealth uniforms.
LIFECOLOR sets
Can only hope that maybe they'll include the darker khaki green for Canadian BD's !!
Cheers

Hi John,
Yes, they have a fair listing of sets. I bought their Middle East British Vehicles Camouflage Set just after I finished the Grant as I prefer acrylic paint, but haven't had a chance to try it out yet.
Lets hope they do a Commonwealth Uniforms set, or two that would be handy.
