Here are pics of the full regiment, with the newly finished 1st Battalion in close-up below. I've lost the GMB flag I bought, hence the rather bare-looking eagle... I've had a blast painting these Perry figures - I really can't recommend the plastic ones too highly ('tho the command figures in the 1st Battalion pics below are all metal).

Absolutely splendid work Giles - agree that they should be shown on Perry gallery. Wouldn't half love to be 1/2 as productive as you are!
Particularly liked the bandaged eye! |

Stunning!
Is the Officer with the bandage over his head/eye a conversion?
I hope mine look as good when they are painted up!
Happy Painting,
Allan |

They look very nice and inspiring.I like the mud effect.I was thinking of doing this as well on a future project.I think it works great with models that have white pants like you have on these.Really great work. 8) |
