EricMc -French Casualties and Chauchat Gunners (35 Points)








The majority of my offering this week are French casualty figures.  I chose to give the casualty figures the basic paint job rather than add a wound.  I felt a little uncomfortable modeling wounds, I want to keep the game as light and fun as possible in what will be a pretty bleak setting.

I realized that I had left the French under-supported so I added four Chauchat gunners.  

My full offering for the week.  Its a bit diminished from previous weeks.  As I mentioned last week my son and I are working on a game for the upcoming conventions Cold Wars so most of my time was spent working on terrain boards.

Here's an early look at the new "great time sink"

 

A further helping today of Horizon Blue - although a mite grimmer this time..you really must give us a shot of everything so far.

    Love those Chauchat gunners (such brave souls for using such a miserable weapon).

    Thanks to Ian (above I did not have to say IT!) Excellent additions one and all. We all need dead markers now and again and these look superb

    Great work! The figures really do stand out from the bases and your palette really enhances this effect.

    Well done on both the casualties and the gunners. These terrain boards of yours do look rather promising already. Looking forward to see the finished pieces.
