Peter Pig 15mm Chain of Command

[BeneathALeadMountain]

Pete I’m pretty sure the PP pack size is down to spin cast mould size rather than an arbitrary decision.

That section looks excellent - you’ve achieved a great balance between highlights and appropriate camouflage colours. I’m often slightly apprehensive when about to paint something (particularly historical minis as there’s an expected scheme) but whenever I start painting PP chaps I’m amazed by how easily they paint up and how good they look at the end - all because of the sculpt.

Looking forwards to the Germans

Superb, I love the unique character of Peter Pig.

[PeteW]

Cheers gents, and yes the Peter Pig figures have great character, and an eye for detail.

The final German test figures completed and I'm happy I have a process for painting the Zeltbahns squared away.

Nice painting!

These are excellent; the zeltbahn is particularly well executed.

[PeteW]

Cheers for the kind comments

Reinforcements have arrived - two full platoons are going through the paint shop at the moment.

German Infantry Plt with an additional SL, but missing two JL, which for some reason unknown to me I didn't base along with the rest, and so are in the next batch for painting, together with a PIAT team and their mate in a jerkin

really cool. You made the perfect balance between scale "readability" and detail.

PeteL, can I ask what uniform colour you used for your Germans? I have about 80 Battlefront plastics to paint and can't find a "feldgrau" that I like.

 Thanks.

Beautiful work on these. You've really hit the mark with bringing out the character of these 15s.

These figures have so much character, and attention to detail.

Thanks - but its mainly down to the figures. Just enough details to paint, without going overboard.
