Hello all,

I was wondering what is the best way to go to depict a 1/35 British Bren Gunner in Italy.

It depends on when in the Italian campaign you want to depict him. The Dragon Commonwealth infantry in Italy has a Bren Gunner in Tropical dress but for later in the campaign any figure wearing battledress would do. There are a few resin Bren Gunner figures- what sort of pose do you want him in? resting or in action?

Very nice figure, I've got one in the stash.

Hello thank you for the replies I wish to depict (loosely) my Grandfather who was at the 4th battle for Cassino as a Bren Gunner.

Thank you for the link Rudi.
