Well I've got to do something as my Future Wars troopers are tanking badly!

So I delved in the lead Mountain last night, and found - one fallschirmjaeger, a freebie from Foundry about 8 years ago... Godammit - I have several hundred unpainted figures, of which precisely one is from WWII!

Off to the shops then...  :wink:

I just ordered 20 Artizan French Foreign Legion from The War Store.  Now I just need to figure out how to paint them.  Only thing I know about the FFL in WWII is that some supported the Vichy and some supported the Free French.  I've not got much idea how to paint them except their hats are white I think.

These might give you some ideas, Ironworker:







They're from the Osprey on Foreign Legion 1914-45. Not sure which of those are WWII exactly, but it might help. Found them on the website of the artist, who is selling the originals. http://bells.de/MikeChappell.htm

Might want to take those images off this forum due to copyright issues. Odd that the artist is posting them on the web.  I wonder if any rights to exclusive use were sold to Osprey and for what period of time, but hopefully any right to exclusive publication by Osprey has expired.  Either the artist or Osprey may have some objection to posting those images here.

I'll get rid of 'em if Prof wants me to (or he can do it if he likes). It's his website. It's a good point and it did give me pause before I posted them, but I figured if the artist has got them up on the web for all to look at then there was no harm done.
