All done, next up a batch of 20 French a mix of Elheim in Tropical kit (French sun helmet) and EWM Bir Hakeim desert Free French
These were delayed whilst I awaited 2 new packs (French officers & a mortar crew), these arrived yesterday and were based and undercoated last evening - today I have been applying the main colour blocks to all 27 figures, time allowing detailing should start tomorrow
Last evening I commissioned and paid for Elhiem to produce 5 packs of Senegalese to supplement his Tropical French range, all negro soldiers in boots w/puttees, shorts and shirts, with a mix of chechia fez and Adrian helmet -
2 off 4-fig packs of riflemen (with Lebel rifles)
A 2-man moving FM24/29 team
A 2-man VB grenade launcher team
A 4-fig gun crew
