Did you build these before breakfast?
Between breakfast and coffee, no seriously 4 days on and off.

I have been painting some 8th Army soldiers as well.
The ruler is to give you an idea of the size - 28mm believe it or not!

The sculpting on that Bren gunner is excellent, he really looks like he's pilling it tight into his shoulder.
DOWN, TEST and ADJUST!!!
Great modelling Dave.

The figures are white metal for the machine gun and mortar crew, they are one piece, the plastic ones have 5 or 6 pieces. The machine gun is two parts white metal and so is the mortar.

Is that the Censor's fingers coming over the lens? Pity this lot's going to end up in a box in the attic and no-else will see it. Great work.

Thanks Chris.
Here are some Perry Miniatures Afrika Korps.
Not so like caricatures as the Bolt Action ones.
