Nice paint job.
Are you going for a skirmish campaign, or something involving a lot of 'stuff'?

Thanks guys for the warm welcome .

I am planning with a more skirmish scale sized project ATM.  And build up to platoon size in time .

Will concentrate on a few squads and get my terrain project back on the go . Hopeing this forum gives me the motivation I am packing ATM .

Rules I have been using are the ww2 edition of "some corner of a foreign field". Which was available by morning star games. 
Empress miniatures brought the rights and released the modern version as danger close .
Which they are playtesting to add vehicles etc. 

Currently looking at other rule sets but dosent seem to be much in the way for ww2 skirmish . Only at platoon level .

Black & white, as well as the lower angle, really make the photos zing.

Great photos and great looking figs!
