Back to the Brushes 381

The first completed figures for 2024 will be coming shortly after appearing in AHPC IV this weekend. 

This has created a small space on the painting table to allow the D.A.K. for 'O' Group to be started. 

All of the miniatures in this project are from Pendraken Miniatures 10mm range and have incredible detail for small figures. Too much detail but that's another story for another day. 

For no reason other than they were there, the first group of models is a pair of Marder IIIs.

After the first session, already looking at ways to speed up the painting of these figures as they started using a painting scheme for 1/56 scale models. Way, way too much depth in painting. The main thing is that the models have enough character to distinguish them from Allied models on the table, the RAL colour reference isn't the driving force here. 

The second pair, still in their basic Pz Grey primer will Match slightly later colour schemes for Sicilian and Italian campaigns. Again, working to table top distances. 

Will be posting more work in progress pics from the ongoing Wars of the Roses project ongoing just now in the next few days as well. 

Cheers for now.
