Here's a picture of completed Artillery Crew as promised

The Officers are nearly finished now, just the bases to do

When all the bases are done & the figures are varnished

I will add a completed picture of the gun crews.

After these are done I have a HMG on Scenic base to do.

I've finished the troops & need to find out exactly what to do about the bases,

as I'm not painting the guns for them. 

The flesh on the officers has been sarted with a mixture of manufactures paints there's 3 layers & 1 wash on them so far! I'll hopefully get the flesh finished tonight.

Here's a quick update on the BEF gun crew

 

I've not done a great deal this week, finished the puttees,

hoses on the gas masks & braces.

Here's the latest wip photo

Helmets & webbing on the crew have been done & the puttees started.

the uniforms on the Officers have been finished.

 I just need to tidy them up & do all the Rank markings, but I will paint the flesh first.



I think I will finish the Flesh on the Bondi next though

I've finished the flesh with the foundry set.

 I still wasn't happy with it before the last two highlights were done, so I gave the flesh a wash with a mixture green & brown to tone it down a bit & I’m much happier with it.

I think in future I will add a touch of green grey to the paint.

The eyes were painted in dark brown, white and a dark brown pupil.

I usually use a darker brown but thought I would try a slightly different colour which I think works better. A wash of Luftwaffe uniform blue grey was also added over the chin & cheeks for a bit of 5 o'clock shadow.

At the bottom left is another Saga fatigue marker that I keep working on.

This one will be Vikingr that has over done the beer & feeling a bit sick!

Here's the wip of The Great War Miniatures Bef Gun Crews & HMG.

I've just picked up the Foundry Expert Flesh set &

as my own set that i had mixed up has finally given up on me

I thought that I would try it out on these.

I'm not sure though, it seems a bit bright up to now,

so I might have to add a bit of green to the pots to deaden it down a bit.

But I need to wait till I've finished the flesh to see how it looks.

All I've done on the Vikingr is finished the white edging.
