VBCW PORTRAITS

Some splendid formal portraits of a few of the principal characters in the Very British Civil War, ideal (with a little Photoshoppery) for mounting on 28mm gable walls or preserving in a suitable desk bound frame:  


Sir Oswald Mosley, Leader of the BUF.
Appointed PM by King Edward VIII.
Known as "The Man of Blood" portrait
(for obvious reasons).


Sir Oswald with a less controversial background.
Some useful uniform references can be found HERE


Neil Francis Hawkins, Director General of the BUF,
with a larger, signed copy of the "Man of Blood" portrait.
Note also the smaller portrait of some foreign dictator.

Joseph Stalin, "The Man of Steel"


Harry Pollitt, Leader of the Communist Party of Great Britain,
with his favourite Stalin portrait
(and he had lots of them).

Winston Churchill, Leader of the "Churchill Assault Column"
Recruited in London and Oxford, the "CAC" has long
been rumoured to be on its way to Herefordshire.


Reichsmarshall Hermann Goering.
After his "unauthorised intervention" at the
Battle of Mortimers Cross, Goering has since spent most
 of his time playing with a new trainset in the attic of the
Castle House Hotel. Yet his remaining Fallschirmjagers
represent a potent pro HMG force within the VBCW...

The Archbishop of Canterbury, Cosmo Lang

King Edward VIII (in civilian clothing). Useful uniform references
can be found HERE

And just for fun, if you don't mind a little more Photoshoppery and wish to use any of these portraits in a very different context, some blank (multi faction) "background" posters for you:
