My latest two entries into the Analouge Painting Challenge, which netted me 183 points. I've now got a total of 272 points and am in 6th place, two in front of Fran!!! he he he heeeeeeeee!!
These poor chaps are painted as several different regiments of French Infantry that fought in the French Indian War. I shall be using these as, exactly what they are... the dead. Back in October, Fran, The Lurker, got a bit bashed on some comments, when he posted some dead figures. They weren't my figures and it wasn't my post, but it kinda pi$$ed me off a little. They are representations of figures like any other figure, just because they're dead why should people be offended, this is wargaming after all???
The figures are from Irregular Miniatures and are from their WSS range, code MA31 "General purpose casualty figures". As the French didn't tend to turnback their coat in most of there units they fit perfectly for the FIW's. At 30p each you just can't go wrong, I shall be ordering some more too.
Next up are Fran's Russian Partizan's that I painted over Christmas while stuck at work on nights, boo!!!!!
I'm only posting a couple of photo's, don't want Fran to get any more Angry do we boys and girls??
I quite enjoyed painting these and am pleased how they came out.
People seemed to like the Cossack dancing, I like the girl on the right, reminds me of the
French Resistance girl out of allo, allo!
Michelle Dubois: Listen very carefully, I shall say this only once.
Rene: Well in that case, could you speak very slowly.
In amongst the Partisan's, were these fine looking fellows, three dismounted tank crew,
one with a wounded arm.
Hope you have a great weekend!! I start back to work on nights on Saturday, so loads
of painting is on the cards.......I hope???
