Always great to see your work.

Hi Jerry. Loving your work as usual. As regards the No4s:
MB one the trigger guard is too big and whole rifle has slightly clumsy look to it.
Dragon one is OK.
Tamiya one the pistol grip part of the butt looks a bit off (never noticed that one the ones I did, eyesight must be going).
Rich one looks fine. One difference between this and the others is it has the standard simple battle sights on (like the Savage produced one) rather than the flip up ladder aperture adjustable one which I think came later. The ones we used in the cadets had the ladder, I think they came from the 50s but I may be wrong.

The Tamiya and Riich are the best, although I think you're right Jerry the barrel on the Tamiya rifle looks just a hair undersized. I replaced the Bronco rifles with their paras with the ones from Riich because they were so good, and the sniper rifle is equally so.

Very good Jerry , both figs are excellent but you're right the second dude has a cool air about him . His facial expression is a snapshot in time .
Dragon and Riich for the rifles , Tamiya's not too bad but the MB does look toyish when compared to the others .

TILT!
Hey, hang on a minute, this is British kit, we have several to choose from and can afford to slag some of it off! Am I in a parallel universe?!

Hey JR so it looks like you’ll have to chop the best bits from the four rifles & present us with a perfectly in-line composite, good luck with that! Fantastic Tommies, they’re already breathing even before the paint

Hi Jerry. Always enjoy your updates and really liking the British figures. You mention Albion tube and I was wondering what size you use and how do you cut it so it doesn’t crimp the end?

Cheers

Chris

Jerry,

Inspirational work as always.

Now, I don't mean to rain on anybody's parade here but the soldiers you've just depicted should really also have their Small Packs fitted. Perhaps you're planning that anyway; that's not to say they were never omitted but the Small Pack would constitute what we'd probably call the Combat Load or Fighting Order these days.

I do feel that such an escort group - who may not even be from the same Brigade - would be correctly attired and equipped, not least given the proximity of the Brigade Commander and his Brigade Major - the latter species not being well known for dispensing small mercies.

Sorry if this adds to your worries but I feel this is quite important.

That said, keep it up whatever you decide.

Regards,

Brian

i'm not a purist or knowledgeable neophyte for that matter, but I always think a mash of styles adds visual interest.

Thanks for the comparison photos, Jerry. I’m currently working on a 1/32 Airfix figure (Canadian infantry in Normandy) and discovering areas for improvement. Your posts are a big help. Cheers, Chris
