Just a very quick entry to display a snap of my Under Fire Miniatures Rhodesian Infantry. These little 20mm gems are easy to paint and really do feel like one is painting a 28mm figure because there is so much to paint!
The bases are a little vegetation heavy and the other two sticks I have will not be laden with as much of the green stuff.
The uniform camouflage was pretty easy in the end, I had worried about this as my previous attempts at camo have been awful. The base coat is Vallejo dark sand then just swatches of Warpainter army green and oak brown. The webbing is Khaki and the whole lot got a wash of Agrax earthshade. Ospreys excellent Bushwars supplement for Force on Force was used as a guide and is an excellent little book on Africa's modern wars.
Thanks for looking Chaps, helicopter next.

ReplyDeleteThanks for the encouragement Chaps. It is good to have a little back up when you try something new! 8 more of these guys to go and then some terrain.
