So, Dijit and me have started a little project for some North Africa campaigning using Bolt Action and the wonderful Perry Plastics. I would like to present to you my first offering (with hopefully more to come!) for my very small starter force (500 points, to a tee, for those so inclined).

A singular rifleman who was the first test subject on how to paint these.

My Oberleutnant (unfortunately my primer somehow splotched on the MP-40 and obscured all details!)

And here's a small group of Pioneers, SMG's and LMG (until I can get hold of a Flamethrower :D)
They're painted to a 2' rule as well - painted to play with, not for showcasing; but I do feel kind of proud of them. Anyway, cheers for looking and I hope Dijit will add some pictures of his 8th Army as well in this thread - maybe there's even going to be a battlereport!

Looking good Torben. I don't think the blotching on the MP40 is that bad - at least not compared to the disaster that is my own undercoating... A third of my platoon look like they've got small pox.

They're going to look great on the table! Nice job!

... Well, you can never rule out that there was a small pox epidemic going on at the time ;)

Thanks a bunch! I'm almost getting ready to finish up the first section of riflemen along with an MG42 position!

Nice looking game!
