Game 2: After some bloody fisticuffs both the Brits and the Qashqai were close to breaking, however it was the Brits who finally succumbed. Unfortunately in the rush to flee from the town, the sniper team were encircled and have become prisoners of Ruholla Khola #WW1inPersia

Making a start on my British mounted command. I’m considering doing head swaps as I got these chaps in an assorted colonial box on EBay and I think these look a little earlier than #WW1inPersia (Sudan?)

Making a start on renovating some old terrain and painting some new pieces I have built. First up are some old resin sandbag positions that need a freshen up in the new desert scheme #WW1inPersia #Dunsterforce

Completed renovating/re-painting the first couple of scatter pieces last night for my #WW1inPersia #Dunsterforce games. For anyone after the paints and techniques used, stages 2 & 3 of the renovation guide will be posted later.

I reckon if I pick only the ones with rifles and paint them in an appropriate colour scheme I can get away with turning these WW2 Hungarians into Turkish shock troops in cutdown German M16 helmets, for use in my #ww1inpersia games. Thoughts?

Test Turkish Assault Battalion trooper for #ww1inpersia ….went with black pouches rather than brown to give some contrast to the model. Maybe need to lighten the helmet a touch? Thoughts?

Keeping a visual record of paints used is worth the effort, and once you have a template is pretty quick. Tonight’s painting: Stage 1 completed on the first section of Ottoman Assault Troopers: Priming and base colours #WW1inPersia

I hope to finish painting & get this unit based tonight. Militia mountain gun supporting the Ottoman forces in WW1 / Afghan Gun for 3rd Anglo Afghan War. Either way, a fantastic set from Perrys. #WW1inPersia #TurkishDelight #boomboomshakedaroom #rockthekasbah
