My WWI Germans, since I need to make a post...
« on: 19 October 2013, 02:29:24 AM »
Apparently I need to make a post to make sure my account stays active.

So, here's my WWI German army, in 28mm scale.  They're a mix of Renegade and Great War miniatures.  They're "Late War," intended to represent the army at about the time of the 1918 Spring Offensive.

I initially intended to flock the bases, but I may leave them bare mud.

And, yes, I have a larger British army (~220 figures) nearing completion. They should be done in a week or so, depending on how much progress I make this weekend.

Wow!  That's a load of Germans.  I'd leave the mud bases for most of them with a grass tuft here and there just to break up the sameness.  Nice paint work.   :)

I'll probably do that - add a few little tufts of grass and barbed wire here and there - once I'm done with the British.

Epic!

Don't add tufts. Mud is perfect.

They look brilliant! I'd leave them as muddy bases, probably with just the odd bit of debris added, but no greenery.

An impressive force. I agree with the majority leave the bases plain mud with the addition of the odd bit of battlefield debris.
