My completed French army.
The contrast paints worked well. The blue works better than the red.
So second off the painting desk for 2025 is another 3 guns, 30 cavalry and 120 infantry.
Surprisingly it only took me less time to complete than the allies. About 10 days.
Next up we are off to the Sahara and other North Africa deserts.
Nice work Ben - now that you have both LoA armies painted, I expect to see a game in the very near future!
ReplyDeleteThanks Keith. Define "near future"... sometime in the next decade 😂
DeleteFantastic Frenchmen, Ben! Like Keith, I expect a game soon.
ReplyDeleteOh no. More peer group pressure. Will I buckle? You know I will 😂
DeleteBut I am off on a two week holiday on Monday so it won't be soon.
A great collection. 😁
ReplyDeleteThanks Stew. Did you notice I colour matched the standards and their coat cuffs? Extra special planning by me.. 😁
DeleteExcellent background to the photos, it sets off the figures well; they look the business!
ReplyDeleteThanks very much!
