I like it! I would definitely like to see your documentation.
I am going to build a wargames army, a big beautiful wargames army, and Mexico is going to pay for it.

Thanks to Bearwoodman ( Gideon), a crisis has been averted and he has kindly donated a new can of Dullcote to the cause!  This was very timely, as just before I set off to see him, my last can ran out half way through spraying these chaps, the latest batch of painted SS!

Anyway, top chap!

As I said, more SS.  Tried to vary up the mix a little of camouflage combos, but the net effect, is that on the table together, they all look…..green! Lol

Anyway, they are exactly what I was trying to do with them so I’m not complaining!

I want to get straight on with some more.  I can’t do these in large batches…the camouflage  makes my eyes screwy!  A small batch to at least give me two sections ahead of next Saturdays game with the guys.

Looking good!  I paint my guys (and/or gals, as appropriate) 2 or 3 at a time, to keep my eyes from buggin' out... :o

Your SS boys have perhaps inspired me to move mine up in the painting queue...

Superb job on the camo painting, those close ups look fabulous.
Who makes that chap jumping over the rock in your last pic?

It’s Warlord mate.  They do a set of five minis alighting from half track…called “Raus!”

The same set as the fella in the cap sitting with the mg42gunner knelt beside him.  I just added rocks.

Cheers guys!

Jamie dropped off some lovely looking armour today, and I will put pics up next week when I have my table set up.

However, as I had painted the crew in anticipation of its arrival, here is the priest!  Cool model, great paint job!

Potentially very useful for dislodging sections from buildings…..9HE plus top mounted mg….not so shabby.

I believe you can only use one of these at a time.

I would need to check that as they don’t occupy the same position.  I would have thought so long as a command was issued to each they could fire….but I could be wrong.

Excellent work, Digits! Those SS look fearsomely brutish, authentically camouflaged, and of course, not at all shiny!
