Em dezembro de '81
Botou os ingleses na roda
3 a 0 no Liverpool
Ficou marcado na história
E no Rio não tem outro igual
Só o Flamengo é campeão mundial
E agora seu povo
Pede o mundo de novo

Thanks Carlos, that's very nice of you to say so.
Must confess, I pretty much made them up with the paints already out on my desk. Light grey/dark grey, khaki, the browns I use on rifles and base edges, the blue I added to the light grey I did the para wings with, hence the blue'ish jumper.

That's all of the Arnhem Heroes Kickstarter figures done just now. Out of ww2 stuff, but quite fancy having a go at a Panther G, and maybe some sort of Jerry jeep.

This is a fantastic set of figures for Arnhem - not just the civilians, the jeeps and the paras going back a few pages!

You know if you fancied supplementing those Dutch resistance chaps, then there's more than a few likely candidates in Empress' German Revolution range. By the very same sculptor too. A few of mine are currently serving as pre-war Sudeten German terrorists, they are remarkably useful and versatile figures. The Empress Romanians give you some tin hats if you fancy fielding more.

Thanks guys.
Just had a look at the 'German revolution' range , the first couple of packs CIV1 & CIV2 would fit with these very nicely.
