Sorry the absolutely horrid picture, as you cannot even see the front of the British figures.
I hope you guys enjoy this little scene I put together last night. I made a flamethrower to go with the dead German, and I painted another camouflage Stahlhelm as well. Road looks alot better but the truck covers it up.
Thoughts appreciated!
Thanks and God Bless,

AUF DER SUCHE NACH MÖGLICHKEITEN,
MÖGLICHES FESTZUHALTEN (Heinz Gasper 1980)
Als gebürtiger Düsseldorfer hat es mich schon sehr früh in die Ferne gezogen. Frankfurt, München, Wien, Graz und seit 1999 wohnhaft in Jennersdorf, im wunderschönen Südburgenland.
Im ausgeübten Beruf als Werbegestalter und Grafiker (1966-1992) aber auch in der Selbständigkeit (bis 2012) ist die bildende Kunst immer allgegenwärtig gewesen.
Meine Leidenschaft sind Experimente mit verschiedenen Hilfsmitteln und Materialien wie zum Beispiel:
Kurzfilme mit und ohne Kamera - Kodak-Sofortbilder ganz ohne Kamera - Negativstreifen und Dias anders gesehen - PC-Fehler zur kreativen Weiterverarbeitung verwenden - Digitalfotografie und ihre Möglichkeiten mit einem Apple-Computer kombinieren und verfeinern - und bis heute noch vieles mehr entdecken...

"La guerra che verrà non è la prima" - 1914-2014 -
"La guerra che verrà non è la prima. Prima ci sono state altre guerre. Alla fine dell’ultima c’erano vincitori e vinti. Fra i vinti la povera gente faceva la fame. Fra i vincitori faceva la fame la povera gente egualmente." (Bertolt Brecht)
View large and see the pilots eyes :o)
This aircraft was built by Wolseley Motors and issued to No 84 Squadron RAF in France in November 1918. It was in action on 10th November piloted by Major C E M Pickthorn MC, the squadron commander, when he successfully destroyed a Fokker DVII in the vicinity of Chimay in Belgium. Post war the now surplus aircraft was bought, with others, by Major J C Savage for his skywriting business and, registered G-EBIA, used from 1924 to 1928 when it was put into store.
In 1955 it was recovered from storage in the roof of the Armstrong Whitworth flight shed at Baginton and restored for The Shuttleworth Collection by staff and apprentices at RAE Farnborough, flying again in August 1959 fitted with a geared Hispano Suiza. When the crankshaft of this engine sheared in flight in 1975 the aircraft was rebuilt with a 200hp Wolseley Viper.
Extensively refurbished in 2007, the SE5a is now in displayed in the colours and markings of 84 Squadron.

Canadian Soldiers in WW1. A painting in the Canadian War Museum,Ottawa. Canada.
*On a personal note;my grandfather was in the 1st World War fighting with the British Imperial Army shooting a cannon similar to this. He lost most of his hearing during the war.
My thanks to my friend Marnik for taking these great views of the battlefield....many Canadians lost their lives here fighting to take the ridge during 3rd Ypres 1917
Toujours sur ces quatre roues, ce vieux tracteur construit dans les années 1900 par Ford et son fils, la raison du nom Fordson. Impressionnant, il démarrait avec une manivelle placée à l'avant de l'engin, les roues de métal permettaient de tracer les sillons dans les champs du fermier. Belle époque!
