About 20 hours for the whole lot as I did it all as one big batch.

Very nice V.  What rules are you using? 

Any plans for tanks?  Chieftain do a nice Matilda that could be part of 4RTR for Brevity

oh my god  unbelievable!

[Gallowglass]

I game with V from time to time. The speed (and quality) with which he paints is terrifying.

I'd hate him, only he's a very nice guy 

[Jase]

Funky!

Are that Artizan models?

[carlos marighela]

Rather well endowed with artillery aren't they? Those look like 6" howitzers. Nice work BTW.

[V]

All 20mm figures.... None of that 28mm Heresy! (Except for the BAM FJ that I own as they are fantastic figures...) 

Certainly are 6" howitzers.

Only the single battery that supported them during Operation Battle Axe I think... More powerful than a 25PDR but less range.

But I got 'em cos they look cool.

I aint doing the tanks for the brigade... One of the other guys in the club is doing all the British armour.

I still have all the transport to paint for the two units... 6 carriers and 9 trucks!

Then I get to paint the interesting stuff... some portees and my recce units! Lots of lovely clanky armoured cars!


Gallowglass,

We are hoping to have this project ready to go on the 14' table before you leave the Emerald Isle... So I hope you will come down for the day to lead the Germans!

That reminds me... I still got DAK to paint too...

[Gallowglass]

I'll do me best, horse
