That gun crew look fantastic, I really like the way you’ve got those rather drab Russian uniforms to pop and yet still look natural.

Love it, well done, love how the metals and plastics work together seamlessly, not easy to do.
May I ask what paint manufacturer do you use?

The ZIS-3 and the Soviet medic team are great work!
The colours and the bases are  fantastic!

I can only echo all the comments so far: superb.

One thing that I really like, which I cannot remember ever seeing before, is cutting a shape into the side of the base of the AT gun, so that you can position additional crew bases in the "correct" position. I think that I shall have to use that myself!

@all: Thanks gents for the kind words! Much appreciated, really!
@gamer Mac: Well, as a Medic I think it'll work just as well as a single figure.
@Gunner Dunbar: I use almost exclusively Vallejo

OK folks. Today some more Soviets to fill out some options as well as the first Germans. As before all are 20mm AB FIgures and were jolly fun to paint. I'm almost at a point where I'm actually considering selling off my 28mm stuff  ;)

You put us all to shame. I couldn't paint 54mm to that quality.

The intense contrast and the depth of colour works wonderfully well on these smaller figures. Unbelievably good.
But please do not sell your 28mm - because they are not bad either  ;)

:D

Exceptional work again 👍

I used your early war colour recommendations on my Crusader Germans- perfect

I'm repeating myself, but that is okay... absolutely magnificent.
Please keep posting your work. It is inspirational.
