On the painting table (2) and a Big Indulgence

 These chaps are coming along very nicely-

Bases to paint and gun metal to add but nearly finished. I am pleased with the results.
The other day when looking for some information for painting the above I chanced upon a book for sale. A big indulgence l know but the individual prints are so charming l couldn’t resist. Seller was a charity so win win as far as I am concerned. Anyway the parcel arrived today-







I am delighted with my purchase and hope to have an enjoyable afternoon exploring my new acquisition…

    A very nice purchase indeed, really looks very interesting and as you say a win win coming from a charity.

    Alan that French army book looks a corker - despite a forward by Petain!

    It seems it's quite rare; the cheapest I've seen is €250 to a whopping £1997.96 on ABE books!

    The new French troops are looking good Alan and that looks like a very nice book too.
