Here is some of my late WWII German infantry. These were a bit challenging as it was my first attempt to do camouflage uniforms on these tiny little guys.

Camo looks very good Pete- how does it look when it is on your board from a few feet up?

Thanks very much, Beagle, Burt, and Jeff!

Burt, truthfully at normal gaming distance, you probably can't see the camouflage all that well. But..... I do it anyway. I may try to paint up some Fallshchirmjagers and some Modern Americans in BDUs one of these days.

Thank you very much, Nashorn! I hope to see your own infantry soon. I have more to paint some more, including Russians, British for NW Europe, Americans for Tunisia and some more for NW Europe, Italians for North Africa, and maybe a couple of the Axis Minors including Romanians and Hungarians. There is still lots to do. I will be tackling some Modern Cold War era infantry pretty soon too.

Here is a little vignette I created showing a pair of M4A1 Shermans somewhere in France during the Summer of '44.

Very nice. Like the Shermans. Not over-highlighted, but just enought to bring out detaila. Just right. Well done.
