15mm WWII Italians

OK, so after two years I've finally given in to having a section of the FORUM specifically set up to discuss painting techniques, display examples, show your latest projects and chat about this vital part of the hobby. Manufacturers please feel free to post up your sculpts, ask questions about what the gamers are after and generally promote your work.. no charge! Painters, please also feel free to post up your work for comment and critique. I can't promise the unreserved adulation characteristic of some other fora but I would hope you'd get constructive and measured comment!

15mm WWII Italians

Post by MikeH » Fri Aug 10, 2007 8:45 am

Hi All

I've only been a member here for a short while but I thought I would throw myself into the Lions Den and post some pictures of my latest project.

if you read my blog you will realise that I have many, many, many projects on the go and I am trying really hard to get them under control

anyway back to the subject in hand, all figures are FoW 15mm and are painted in a mix of Vallejo and foundry paints with a light wash to add shadows

first up Italian Infantry

next some AT Guns

Image

a few M14/41 tanks

Image

and finally the Lancia AA guns, these arn't finished yet but you'll get the general idea

Image

any comments are gratefully received, I've been working on the army for 6 weeks now (on and off) and have nearly finished

Thanks Barry

to be honest the whole 15mm painting has been a shock for me,
I never knew I could paint that quickly :lol:

mind you now I am recording my painting exploits on the blog I am a lot more focused and am actually finishing projects instead of just leaving them half finished on a shelf somewhere.

next on the 15mm list is the LRDG. so I'll post some pics when I start them
