The Road to Falaise Bobs on going 15mm WW2 Adventure
Another landmark Done
Painting infantry in any scale tends to be the longest thing to do, as you dont have to just paint them , but base them as well, often the basing can take as long as painting the figures,
Although I have to finish the later on my last Platoon of Panzer Grenadiers, and 3rd Platoon of British. I have done all the painting, which hits two actual landmarks :
One I’ve painted all the infantry for all 3 forces I intend to do (well rifle platoons some heavy wpns to for Germans and British to do)
Two I’ve done the infantry for both British and German starter boxes
Will still be some odd figures to do, as in above hvy wpn teams and gun crews for various guns, but compared to the bulk painting of above!
The British were done differently from other two forces,in that no contrast paint was used.
Base coat of GW Zandri Dust
2x washs of Seraphim Sepia to get nice khaki effect
Then block painted belts and gaiters GW Nurgling Green.
Rifles and entrenching tools just got a GW wash of Reikland Flesh shade
Metallic bit on guns was the Dark Gun metal from Vallejo.
The and overall thinned out wash of GW Agrax Earthshade
I them picked out the face details with White Base ( more a cream really) from Privateer press.
Rank markings were done with a Wolf grey from Army Painter, and yellow/black 11th armoured shoulder pads added.
And from the back!
Now I managed to finish above and two more lolly pop sticks worth to complete Motorised Rifle Platoon (Rifle Brigade) and 3 bases for foot figures for carrior section ‘
Above took a good chunk of Sunday and Monday morning, so yesterday afternoon finished of base painting of Hellcats and in the evening put on most of the Decals, just need to put on vehicles names
Lovely work buddy, they are coming along nicely
