Title: Some WWII British (28mm)
Post by: 14th brooklyn on January 25, 2014, 08:03:43 PM

Just posted some pictures of the nucleus for my British Infantry Platoon. There are Officers, NCO, Radio, Bren teams, Piat Teams and Vickers. Minis are by Victory Force, Bolt Action, Warlord and Artizan:

All men are from the 1st South Lancashires.

Those look great!

And nice to see that the different manufacturers look good together on the table.

Thank you both! And Tomek… I feel the same, especially since it allows for good variety without the need for plastics!

The figs look great! Great photographs too.  Random question what did you use for the wheat field?

Thank you!

The wheat fields are just teddy bear fur "Athelope Brown". That is all!

Very nice, did a double take when I saw the bloke with the PIAT, thought it was a photo of an actual person for a moment. Lovely paintwork and photos.
