Title: Faithful Dirty Little Imps - DLI Platoon 1944
Post by: V on December 30, 2020, 09:11:19 AM

My finished Durham Light Infantry platoon for Normandy inspired by my trip last year and seeing so many DLI men still there in every Commonwealth cemetery...

All figures are by AB Figures.

Super job on those. They are great little figures and your painting style suits them perfectly.

Cracking work - looks like a good platoon plus of figures too.

Is there a story behind the chap in the red cap and jodhpurs?

He is just there for traffic control.

Cant have traffic jams so always have an RMP on stand by...

Lovely brushwork full of character, in particular the faces. Your work would do 28mm justice!
