Last week I went vacation with my family. Like most miniature painters I faced the vacation dilemma - do I or don't I bring my hobby stuff along? I choose not to and so got some good reading done, but little progress on "my guys." I finished up these just before I left.
I did these pretty straight. The one exception is I changed the rolled up sleeves of a couple of the guys so that they had full length jackets without rolled up sleeves (green stuff). For colors I made sure to mix in some stripes/patterns as well as some bright colors here and there. My collection didn't really need more Chechen fighters in civilian clothes, but I couldn't resist painting up these great new sculpts. I've even got some more similarly kitted guys to do soon.

Hope you are well rested now. These are nice btw. Is Rolf still doing new releases? I never read about that anywhere on the Internet, noboy reports on his stuff as far as I am aware, I just see you post them.
ReplyDeleteYup. Rolf's newest lines, that I can think of, are cold war related Belgian 1980's, Poles 1980's etc. He is definitely still adding to his existing lines - head swaps, additional weapons, etc. The 20mm scene (Guild) seems to be heavy into WW2, perhaps that'll shift when Cold War Battle Group is released.
