SCW Moroccan Regulares, Republican Militia - updated 31/07

[scrivs]

After a few games of Spanish Civil War using Chain of Command with mate James and his extensive figures collection I was itching to paint up a platoon of my own.

I chose to do a unit of Moroccan Regulares using the rather fabulous Empress figures.

While on holiday in Cornwall last weekend I did all the painting and finished off the basing yesterday / today when I returned home.





As usual, more photos and commentary on the   Scrivsland blog

While I was doing these I also painted a few figures for James to fill a few holes in his force:

Top work Scrivs...very atmospheric.

The Regulares offer up interesting opportunities to the Nationlist player and in some ways are as effective as the Legion.

Looking forward to an AAR seeing these guys hard at it...good job!

Thanks folks, happy you like them. I've now ordered myself a load of Republican Militia to pit against them.

Thanks chaps.

Having painted the Moroccan Regulares last month, it was time to add a few supports to them, so I added a Empress Panzer 1A



And a pair of 50mm Mortars

Having got the Nationalists just about wrapped up, this week I made a start on the Republicans. I envisage a force of Republican Militia stiffened with a few Guardia Civil, having acquired a handful from James I purchased another pack from Empress and they arrived on Thursday.

I splashed a bit of paint on those yesterday and finished the bases today.

I've been a busy bee this week and also made a start on the Militia that are going to make up my Republican faction.

Only half a dozen so far, but I'm really enjoying painting these.

Whoops, repainting those militia hats. That will teach me to use pictures of other peoples miniatures on the internet as a reference
