I've already sent in painting the WWII Dutch infantry - leastways, I think I have.

[martin goddard]

You have indeed sent in a Dutch article Andy. It was in the last MILL.  The colour guide for paints was very useful.  I bought those Vallejo colours you recommended.  Thanks.

The article in the Mill 22 is the one I did on using Contrast paints on WWI BEF.

[Leman (Andy)]

Apologies Martin - turns out that the Dutch article is not in my sent emails, so I'll get onto it shortly. I need to check if I actually included it in a WWII post on the forum. I appear to have been planning to do it, as mentioned on page 40 of this thread, but could not load pictures at the time. That problem is now solved so I shall put together what I have come up with in terms of paints.

[martin goddard]

You are right Andy.
Ready when you are.

Done and emailed.

Nowhere near anything ready yet, not even figures a.t.m. but will crack on nonetheless even if I don't meet the deadline

That Georgian rabbit hole is deeper than I thought - as the recent scenic builds suggest. I belatedly realised I'm effectively assembling four armies much like I did with my AK forces. I'm getting there but there is still a long ways to go...

I'm building some new hedges, from Woodland scenic bushes, but struggling to get the PVA/water mix to go hard in NZers wet spring weather...

I may have to seal them with varnish if I cannot get them to stay together.

Cheap hairspray can useful for sealing flock onto trees and hedges.

I am finishing off  or continuing with my Western Styled Africans ? The force I did for Wild Geese. As I can use the same troops to represent the African Kantangense force for Jadotville.
Also sorting out troops to represent the Irish, More  Head Changes ?
I will cheat a bit with these, the Command groups will have the Blue Berets and flags, while the rest of the forces with have normal military coloured berets.
Does anyone know where I can get the Ford Armoured Car that the Irish use please ?

I am painting up my first unit of Bulgarians using Kallistra 12mm Russians.

My plan is to use them for the Balkan Wars and WW1 Macedonian campaign.

I'm working on a Later Visigothic DBA army as a prize for a tournament. These are verrrry old 15mm sculpts from TTG, or 15mm.co.uk. Despite their age they look decent with some paint (even my paint...,🙂).
A couple of Peter Pig figures have been drafted in to fill the ranks. One used to be a ? Parthian standard bearer, but now has a Draco and a big round shield. T'other is def a PP horse, but may be a PP Numidian, not sure. He likewise acquired a big shield and nasty attitude to join the Goths...
