ERF.. 'English Resistance Fighter' ...aka as 'Running with the Clivvers'

Nice one Brian.. That cap is perfect, in my mind ERF/BRF would be akin to Sean Connery's character in 'The untouchables'

This a cracking thread & it's already off to a brilliant start. Mr Slacksparov, You've set a high bar to reach my friend. It's a beautiful start with such well created ERF bashes. Not so keen on the Dio mind you..............Git!
Brian......I love that look. The cigarette is so quintessentially British, a great touch makes all the difference.

'Who Dios..Wins!'

Outstanding work so far guys! slacks yours are stunning! the WI IZ CLIVVERS really made me chuckle! , the brains behind the organization in his secret London location! I will come up with something soon!

That cap is brilliant gibri , got to get me one of those .

if thet werent so damn rare i would suggest a cricket jumper as part of the erf outfit

ERF Till Victory PT02!

Having heard of the ERF Slacktroops success, David Remmington and Capt Sean O'Cushnan prepare to strike a blow against the German Invaders to liberate a dock at a London Docks to allow the delivery of fresh food and weapons to the English Resistance Fighters.

The midnight has long since past and the two brave resistance fighters approach their target, a lone sentry, guarding a small point of opportunity for our boys.., the time has now come for them to prove if they really are Bulldogs!



A single shot rings out through the early hours and the German sentry drops to the floor, clutching his shooting arm shoulder..., The Captain slides through the bombed doorway and fires a short burst into the sentry's chest, killing him.



Remmington keeps lookout!



Once satisfied that they haven't been discovered, the two saboteurs slip away into the night...,

 

Leaving an open port for their allies to gain access to the port..., Job Done Capt. Clivvers

Nice one Bri!

He looks like an expert cockney document forger, pickpocket and lookout, who hangs around on East London street corners to collect intel on the movement of enemy officers.... And also useful with a switchblade, a stolen enemy officers Luger pistol and a grenade or two...

Well done Dal! Great pics!

Another super kitmix Dal, that's how i imagine the ERF/BRF team would have looked, and proudly still wearing parts of their old (Banned) uniforms!  

The mini tale is a good one alright, it has a very London looking backdrop, and Capt Clivvers!

This thread is a great idea Slackers, well done for bringing it to light! I hope to see more over the coming weeks, months and year!


I think Reddragon is right: It should be British Resistance Fighters (BRF) or is ERF still ok, perhaps use both? It's up to you lot.

Epic work Dal...the Dio works great and the sea backdrop is perfect... great uniforms... love the run pose on the last picture... top work! !

I only went ERF because it was what Clivvers mentioned in the FRF. We can go BRF, SRF,WRF,IRF...I think we should do the lot... I'll do a couple of Scots... I've got ideas for those  

Keep creating chaps... this one's got legs!
..

Fantastic thread! Top work everyone!

I've dabbled close to this area before....



I'll take my 40's looking pieces and re-arrange them!


Here's an article on the movement.

Thanks Jay, good one. The boastful American reply to that is "not since Superman"

But, you're right, It is a challenge/password. I was thinking someone would come up with it as it's a pretty well known British challenge/PW


Fantastic figure, Paul!!! Where'd that trench come from?

Excellent comic, Dal!!! Great story and photos!

That looks really good Paul, i can imagine that one also being a MI6 officer. M16 being the main suppliers of weapons to the ERF/BRF

ERF operatives defying the curfew to blow up an enemy submarine.

great stuff Chris!, more ERF to join the fight!

the erf must have plenty of weapons to leave a perfectly good mp40 behind , unless it was booby trapped to catch unwary germans off-guard . was it ?

must have been an oversight in orders, their mission was simply to open a way for the allies to deliver supplies, something to think about in their orders next time

Nice kit Rogue-Trooper, it's how i imagine they would have looked in WWII

There's two essential pieces of kit that the ERF/BRF would have definitely worn and no one has included the items yet

I would also like to see some SRF in kilts, that would be good. I don't have any vam kilts, i will have to cut up one of "her indoors" tartan Burberry skirts to make some kilts for my vam    I used to cut up pillow cases back in the day to make tents and parachutes for my vam & Joes

Cheers Clivvers. I don't have much in the way or ww2 gear as modern warfare is more my thing.  

I'm intrigued to know what bit of kit we're all missing

Victoria Cross?

I'd include a Victoria Cross on one I'd like to do, but the two medals I have are from the Timeless GI Joe Australian Jungle Fighter, so they're the Croix de Guerre (French).
