Painting the belts and wedding on 100 odd guys at the same time was almost soul destroying!

Very nice looking force overall! And having just bought the new plastic Armored Rifle Platoon box I can only agree that the quality has sure gone forward a lot. The only gripe I have with them is the choice to put so many duplicate poses on the sprue. The German plastic sprues have all the poses unique so why didn't they do the same on this too.Samulihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04768684644521312467noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-504019008093553470.post-17319179672880517272014-07-21T08:32:36.041+01:002014-07-21T08:32:36.041+01:00Phenomenal output Ben!

I'd be tempted by them but I can't face up to the painting!

Very impressive considering all the infantry too! The basing looks great on the infantry and really ties them together. A very nice force. I can't believe the amount of stuff you manage to get painted!Cameronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02145798538758316372noreply@blogger.com
