WW1 Indian Lewis gunners - Mesopotamia


Ted

Recommended Posts

Trying to finish some half-started projects. This vignette was supposed to be for the Great War GB last year but I got distracted.

 

The gunner is one of the figures in the old Tamiya LRDG truck kit with a head from the Dragon Monte Casino figure set. Arms re-positioned so he's firing up. The Dragon heads are very lifelike. The Lewis gun and ammo box are Resicast.

 

The spotter is an ICM figure from their WW1 ANZAC set, also with a Dragon head and re-positioned arms. I have a few sets of the ICM WW1 figure sets and they are all really good.

 

The pit/base is a hogged out piece of pine with acrylic medium and grit gooped on.

I really like this, which theater would they be in the ground appears to light for France ? The middle east, Africa, or southern Europe ?  

 

Edit: I went and found the WIP. That answered the question.
