Lovely pjs Andy.  8)

The way you've based them, the choice of minis works really well with the larger scale vehicle.
My LAF Gallery is HERE
Minis (foot & mounted) finished in 2025 = 74
(2024 = 38; 2023 = 151; 2022 = 204; 2021 = 123; 2020 = ???)

Wonderful stuff - that latest squad looks fantastic! Thanks also for the link to the thread on the U.S. Airborne - some lovely painting there. Looking forward to more of your 8th Army - is there any armour in the painting queue?

Thanks! And no probs Hawkeye!

I've been working away at a few wee bits and pieces lately. First up is a stand alone desert house.











I've also shamelessly stolen an idea from the ever brilliant Silent Invader. My machine gun team, I've kept them on separate bases, but they all connect into one.







.....and last but not least, I now have a desert well to add to the set up.

Did you build your desert well or is it a commercial piece.
Cheers,

Brilliant Andy - can't decide if my favourite is the well or the house - both are gorgeous.  :-*

(And you're way too kind to me!  :))

Dear Boy,
What wonderful work and brilliant painting .
A fantastic achievement.
I found the Perrys disappointing. The poses were pretty good but
faces could be disappointing if not somewhat ugly .
Artisan are slightly charachture for my taste . They are dynamic but
can be a little cartoony. Still good if you like the style.
The perfect figure for British 28mm for my liking would be in
the style of 20mm AB . They are elegant and realistic .
Sadly maybe tastes have changed but I don't think anyone make
This type in 28mm.

Keep it up
Cecil

I'm afraid it's my build mate! Easy peasy though, out of scrap bits of blue foam, cut into small brick and laid/glued like a real wall.

Jesus christ they are brilliant. Are you doing this for BLAM?

Cheers Iain! These are just for me buddy, I think its probably pirates for BLAM.

This is going to be a busy desert :o :o :o
Lovely stuff :-* :-* :-*

We don't have to use it all at once. It'll allow us to play diffrent games though. AND it could be used for our 7th Voyage stuff!

Great stuff mate  :-* :-*

Love the building, can't wait to see some paint on it  8)

cheers

James
