Oh no not Mre Dad's Army!

yeah fraid so. Not really the "Enemy" but definitely a thorn in the side of Captain Mainwaring and his fellow troops of the Home Guard. Today we Have the Vicar and the Verger! Matt has converted them both to be armed. Not that they ever were in the TV series, but as this is for wargaming, it probably is a very good idea.

I will not even try to be clever and tell you what the guns are as well I am just not that clever. (Stop sniggering, I know who you are!)

I will try to get a couple more done for tomorrow. No Garantees of course as I am painting a few xmas gifts. And I Guarantee they are not for you..... They are both for women in their fifties. No Ray that does not describe any Irishmen, I know what you are like, cheeky git!

Hopefully more tomorrow IF I can ever get the painting mojo up and running this day.

All the best Clint

    Hmm, the vicar looks as if he's sorry for something he's just done or is just about to do, but the verger ain't sorry at all!

      Thanks Fran. They are not for me. They are for Matt and he will no doubt "need" them.

    They are well painted (as usual), Clint, but I just can't see either of them wielding a firearm. It just doesn't ring true at all.

      Thanks Bryan. While there is a tradition of weapon wielding Clergy. I have to say it does not seem to fit in this instance with the characters. But Matt converted them to carry weapons and it is his choice.

    What a great repentant-looking pair and I have to imagine that they're holding the weapons for someone else.

      Thanks Joe. Yes I think Walker has asked them to hold the weapons.
      He seems the type, or maybe Napoleon!
