Hello!!!

first French armored paint test (D2 of the 345th CACC)







picture, I do not like it, but in reality, it's better I find the colors are warmer and the effect brushing is not as brutal, fortunately, but the technique is still improving

Excellent job. The freehand markings are really well done. If you are interested, I posted up pictures of some of my 1940 BEF last week:

Great work on the infantry eric

The photos of the tank haven't come out great for some reason. Its probably worth getting some roundal decals - trying to paint 3 concentric circles is always going to be hard!! Aircraft ones are often easier to get hold of than AFV ones, and are essentially the same - its just a question of size. I think Pendraken have some, they also have some playing card decals, which are good for the units that used these.

Those infantry are some of the finest examples of painting 20th century 10mm figures I have ever seen! Truly excellent.  Well done!  =D> =D> =D> =D> =D> =D> =D>
