75mm French First World War Artillery...NOW with CREW!
« on: 28 June 2016, 08:50:32 AM »
75mm French Artillery. I thought I would post some pictures of the gun sans the crew so it's easier to get a good look at it. I believe the gun is made by NorthStar Figures - originally thought it was a Scarab model, but the configuration was slightly different. I had great fun doing the weathering on this. It was done just using acrylic paint & washes, chipping was done using Vallejo Black Brown applied with a sponge.

Hi James,

I painted this as part of a commission, so they weren't purchased by me.
I believe it is from NorthStar Figures: http://www.northstarfigures.com/prod.php?prod=5803
I hope that helps.

Cheers,
John.

Ah, no worries  :)

I made the master for Scarab's 75mm and was wondering what you might have thought.

cheers

James
