Scarab Rommel et al - my attempt
« on: July 16, 2010, 07:02:19 PM »
I put these on the Scarab Forum last week.  It my attempt at painting up the Rommel pack, I used foundry storm green for the tunic and slate grey for the trousers.  I'm interested to get an opinion from people on the uniform colours.

I'm no expert, but the colors look pretty good to me. The overall painting quality is outstanding!  :-* I've always wanted to play out the actions in Rommel's book...

Look great. Would never have thought to use Storm Green myself - nice one.

Very nice. I do like the 'Blakey' figure in the middle. Must have another look at the Scarab range, the Wurtemburgers are a unit I'm keen to portray.
