From the very big to the very small


Just finished painting my first four 20mm Brits from Stonewall figures, I'm not sure how I feel about them to be honest. I have not painted anything this little before so the drop in detail is a bit difficult to deal with as I usually paint highly detailed 28mm figures. But that is not to say that these are not nicely detailed figures, especially given the small size, I'm just not used to painting them.

Still I'm quite pleased with the results and they should be a dam sight easier to store, so a great way to collect a company of Brits. Although it may all be for naught as I'm sure I will continue my obsession with painting WW1 brits. Fancy a couple of squads of GB figures to join my Musketeers.

This might be the last post for a little while as I am moving to Scotland on Friday so lots to do.

  2. Thanks, not sure If I will get any from them as the sculpts were a bit ropy, always difficult to find suppliers with good quality sculpts in 20mm.

  3. Sorry that I'm so late on this post but it has been madness at work. They look pretty good to me, but more importantly I hope the move went well.
