Excellent! :-*

Very fine figures and painted very well.
I love Artizan figures.
Have a number of them myself.

Yet another great example of why I need some Artizan WWII figs....your PJs really bring them to life.
Cheers,
Blue

These miniatures are such a feast for the eyes. Your painting is allways a treat, thanks for sharing!
-
These are excellent. I really must get round to doing MINE which have been languishing for ages.
At the risk of starting a controversy...is there any definitive answer as to whether the US Paras used the BAR? The possibility that they didn't has never seemed to bother anyone designing figures,in whatever scale.

Love the brushwork on the paras, well done.
Cheers,

-
Wow, crisp paint job there!
-
Very nice indeed and some of the best ww2 figures around.
-
You're undeniably one of the best painters around on the internet, those miniatures look amazing!
-
Big Frank, which is the colour scheme you use? I ask because your jumpsuits are greener than mine and I'm interested in mixing a bit.
-
Did you paint them with the later M1943 jacket colour in mind?
-
You shame my painting skills :-[
Top work, only c&c would be the lack of 'weathering' to make them look a little dirty? Very jealous.
-
Very nice, Frank! Thanks for sharing.

Echoing many of the comments above; nice work!
-
Thanks for all the comments.
@ Kane, I use a mix of vallejo khaki green with a little green grey for the base coat, then wash with devlan mud and highlight up from khaki green to iraq sand.
@ greatescapegames, I've tried to do various shades of the M1942 and M1943 uniform.
Anyway here's a fire team for the second rifle squad.

Thanks for the info! But is that Kakhi Green, is that number 988 or... Because I can't find a "khaki green" paint. I think that scheme would work really well with my more "brown" uniforms to mix it up a bit :). And again an awesome paintjob on the new models!
-
@ KANE, Sorry its khaki grey 880 and grey green 866.
-
Stupendous, :-*
-
Another 3 members of the second squad.

As always thanks for all the kind comments.
Cheers BF :)

I'll just put mine in the bin then! These are very, very nice indeed. Your paintwork brings out all the character in these figures.
-
3 more painted up. All with rifle grenades fitted. There's one for each squad and the mini's they replace will be used to make up the numbers of the 2nd squad's 2nd fire team.
Sorry if the top pic's a bit blurry.

Are these the evil twins of your SOTR force? ;)
-
Wow very nice. I was looking at those figs for a long time. Now that I have seen yours any attempt to paint them would be disappointing.
-
Ok; I'm not just putting mine in the bin now, I'm melting then down first! Top notch work, absolutely top notch.
