Martyn,
As always a pleasure to see you playing with the troops. Interesting to see the artillery in gray as I have not seen that before.
All the best, Lawrence

Hi Lawrence

Many thanks I'm glad you like the pictures.

Way back in 1994/1995 I asked Len if I could have several Artillery pieces, along with limbers and wagons, painted in grey and there you see two examples.

Cheers

Martyn
