This is a very realistic-looking battle.  :o
I feel sorry for the klickies who fell in the line of duty. :(
I hope the sweet little drummer boy survived and didn't catch a stray bullet.
 
It's obvious a lot of work went into the research, set-up and photography of this scene.
Thanks for sharing it with us, cooster. :)

From one of the football players, perhaps?
I think both the French (4710) and Italian (4712) figures have short sleeves in a similar shade of blue.

My money's on the French one, for obvious reasons. ;)

Simply because of Cooster's location. ;)

I was wrong anyway.
No wonder I'm so broke! :'( ;)


Sorry for going OT again, everyone.

Sylvia, sorry to disillusion you, but as a long time student of military history, I have to say Drummer Boys are seldom "sweet".
