Hi,
on to my next commision. This time its the first section from a Brrit para platoon. Figures are by Peter Pig and havn't been bases as the customer want to do it them self for Rapid Fire.

The camo smocks were fun to paint. Fist time I've painted PP figures. Nice, a bit thiner that BF. Good figs.

As usual any comments welcome.

These are really nice Gary. I think I'll get some!

Much talk at the club tonite about the big game scenario I'm proposing. Of course Paras like these would be very useful for a D-DAY Game or even Arnhem. now there's a thought!

Hi,
glad you like them. Liked the idea of the big game. Any idea when you might be doing it?

Is it definatly going to be NWE? I t just that there are more players in the group with eastern front figures.

Enjoy your trip.

not necessarily. I don't care about the theatre, the idea and the participation are the main thing. It seems that the group who were at the club tonite are likely to be the ones playing:

Dave
Tommy
Stephen McS
Alan
Ian Stewart
Ian Beal
Gary Whyte
John Hill

I think Paul Mc will be in
YOU
ME

and probably a friend of mine Brian P.

12 is definitely enough.

Venue already being investigated - hotel in EK.

Scenario - I'm easy! Russian front is my favourite I already have a four -parter for each of the following:

1. Barbarossa
2. Stalingrad
3. Kursk
4. Bagration
5. Seelow/Berlin

Might be best to to a straw poll with the boys and ask... East, West or Desert!

What do you think?

My Germans can fight either Russia or Normandy so no real preference

Very nice paras by the way
