Harry Fry's machine gun squad

With the deadline for this project approaching like a "heaven sent thunderbolt" to "obliterate me with it's ruby fire" I have been hastily painting the mass of rank and file troops.  This kind of painting doesn't tend to look great on posts until the entire company is complete.
The Moroccans are almost finished, the Foreign Legion continues apace and the British Battalion remain untouched.   So it was time to add to the International Brigade firepower with Harry Fry's machine gun squad.

During the first day for battle the heavy machine guns were issued with the wrong ammunition. Harry Fry, the company commander and Fred Copeman ,were forced to manually load the guns bullet by bullet until the correct ammunition arrived.  In the game this is reflected by the HMG's turning up on the field as the result of chance card (I supposed that they could be forced to fire as rifles for the first day's fighting with a reduced range ...)  I mounted them on a circular base because I prefer the look rather than a square base.

¡No pasarán!
