Ooh - very nice, Martin.

And in time for Colours too :)

All worthy work in the current hotness.

Those Assault Guard LMGs are looking great.

And I was delighted to see that there's now provision on the website for HMGs too!

Thanks Simon.
Assault guard MMGs on the way.

I am having problems with undercoating figures.
I never had a problem before, but the spray is  causing lumpkins.
I will try to get closer , shake the can more and think about the temperature.
A problem to solve.

When I used spray cans (I've given up after one big problem too many), I would put them in very hot water before use, which apparently helps mix things up in addition to shaking.

For these small batches, have you thought about brushing on a primer, instead of using a spray, for the photos? Stynylrez comes in a range of colours and gives a nice finish (you'll need several coats, though).

I see what you mean by the spray on the Roman Higher Command, Martin.

But they're lovely figures!
