Boxer Rebellion

It was a great day for 20mm plastic figures when Orion produced Boxers in 1/72 scale. I just love it when a new era is opened up for gaming.

I have had about 4 boxes painted up for me by Kyle Tompkins and Annie Miller-Tompkins, and some of their handiwork is shown below. Kyle and Annie are great folks and professional figure painters. If you want some figures painted you can contact them at: rmiller_mail@msn.com

I have also attached some inspirational pics from an old turn of the century French magazine.
