So Bolt Action is very popular in my gaming community and I figured it was time I joined in. Ordered some Germans for a 1940 list including the rarely seen in BA Panzer I hehe.

Wanted to throw some paint at a mini and see how it came out today. Very pleased with the look and now waiting for confirmation of what’s right and wrong colour wise from a friend of mine who does re-enactment and has a lot of literature on the subject.

So apparently the Jacket needs more green in it for the time period. He sent me a pic of his jacket showing this. Gonna try some of the green shades on the mini to see how it goes.
