Cracking mate, I hadn't noticed the field dressing on the one cocking his rifle on my ones, beautiful little details on these figures.

It took me a while to realise it wasn't something to attack with a file..!

Here's the last of the infantry.

They are all great, if I had to choose though, I would definitely point out the medic in the former batch and the bloke in his kilt in the latter batch. I do like the paintjob on these specifically, especially the tartan(?).

man the detail on that kilt is incredible, I would never attempt something like that.

Thanks guys.
The kilt wasn't too taxing. dark'ish blue all over, broad green check pattern (could have done with a second coat, as it dried a tad dark).
Thin red line through the middle of the green, then a thin yellow line down the edges of the green. Finished off with a wash of dirty water...

Finished a couple of Mortar teams.
Used the figures from an extra pack of the 6 pounder crew.

The figures are great, however if I had to pick something, the basing really stands out on this one. The bushes especially look realistic. A small diorama.

Great stuff, Ash!

The Denison's don't look three bad, either!

Cheers, I was going for that dug into a ditch look for this.

Thanks Harry. Here's the two that lift out:

That mortar vignette is a masterpiece. The fact that you can see the roots of the foliage in the pit is brilliant.

Thanks Carlos.

Here's the other team. With more rather large sand bags, they look smaller when in the making, for some reason once painted they look massive...
