Soapdodger's 8th army
Finished! (for the moment)
That’s me all done for now. Enjoyed painting this and finding out more about the desert war as I went through it all.
Only tip I have apart from avoid painting armies (much prefer less model count games). Is that if you have bayonets to gloss coat them and then satin / matt coat them after. I also don’t a top down glass then satin coat on these.
Hopefully they will not fall apart or paint rub off.

Completed armyThat’s me done for the moment. I have my eye on the 8th Army starter army. This would add:
- 36 x British 8th Army infantry
- 1 x 8th Army 6-pdr anti-tank gun
- 1 x 8th Army 25-pdr light artillery
- 1 x 8th Army Vickers MMG team
- 1 x 8th Army 3″ medium mortar team
- 2 x Bren carrier
Which I think would compliment the army I have and expand it to every option I would want (apart from I think a Matilda and a truck).
Marking this as complete for now as that may be a next year project. I have lots more to be getting on with but this was a very fun distraction.
