More or less finished these, a small addition to my ANZAC collection.
Not as well crafted as the infantry set, as the soft plastic does not hold the lines on the figures, not as crisp, if you know what I mean.
The sculpting is also
inferior to the other set but they are still okay; would have been good to see one or two figures in the shirt sleeves but still a gap in the range filled. Back to doing Russian mortars next.
The sculpting may be inferior, but your painting is superior!
ReplyDeleteYou surely made them look terrific Al!
Great painting!Well done!

I know what you mean about the "soft" plastic..why they have decided to use this type is beyond me...the finer detail is lost, which although it gives them a certain charm is a shame as the WWI series is pretty good all in all. Still you´ve painted them well and they look ok, that´s what counts eh? :-)

Thanks lads, nice one
ReplyDeleteWhatever the quality they do seem to have a lot of character - nicely painted to!

You know I love the Anzac stuff. Looks great.
ReplyDeletegreat painting
ReplyDeleteMordern stuff is very under represented. I have a lot of the HaT range in the stuff I like, but the plastic they use is inferior to others. I don't understand this choice.
ReplyDeleteNice looking stands.Keep up the good work!

ReplyDeleteNo real wargamer actually paints stuff, right?
