71st Higlanders – 1st Battalion

Posted on October 28, 2008 by Count Belisarius

Seeing as I’ve been busy basing for days I though I’d post something just to get things moving. Just decided to take a quick shot of them with the old camera and it seemed to come out OK colour-wise. So I though I’d try with a white background but that just turned the whole image …
