Plastic 20MM....

Hi Chaps,

Just a quick update as to what I will be painting this month. Mostly 20mm German plastics from Valiant (I love the figure size even if they are giants) and some Zvezda models to give a little extra to my rapid Fire battalion.



The bundle above cost less than £20 which is a bargain. Not many other pastimes could give you a months hobby time for that sort of money. last month I painted over 30 Copplestone Chinese figures and although I will return to them I just needed a change of paint colours.

So the only question left is when will Valiant be producing some Soviet 20mm giants?

keep blogging Chaps it is fascinating seeing what others can produce! Sorry about the picture quality I had to snap these at the first sign of blue sky.

    Nicely done, hats off to you working at this scale too. Mind you, you certainly get more for your buck with 20mm.

    Thanks for the comments Chaps. I will post some pics of the Chinese as soon as I get some blue sky! As for 20mm I am a big fan, one just has to use a smaller brush and expect a little less detail!
    Thanks again, it is running up to Christmas so I had to reign in hobby spending!

    The paint job on the Zvezda guns has come up really well. HAT do a range of WW2 tank riders that look good, I hope they will expand their range.

    The Valient 20 mil are so big they are the size of the old 25mm, I would go with those Monty, they are easy to paint, a battalion should be done in three or four hours. I am about to order the Hat tank riders, that was an excellent heads up Sun of York, thanks!
