When the Chambers of Challenge were first revealed, I really tried to mentally go through them (or at least the ones I thought I was likely to get to!) and figure out what could fit where. It's a simple fact that not everything I wanted to paint would fit. I'll just have to work harder to reach my puny goals.
So here's part of a cold-weather-ready section of American infantry for WW2. They're wonderful Artizan Designs figures. Quite different from the Empress engineers I finished last week, but very satisfying to paint. For the rest of the squad, I plan to try a browner hue to the OD overcoats. We'll see if I can manage that.
Points-wise, I think this is very straightforward with six 28mm figures for 30 points. When I complete the section, I'll give myself a pat on the back and will be able to field a Chain of Command platoon in varying weather (or just have an extra section handy as a support choice).
I really like your US Army project this year. Outstanding painting work

They look excellent Jasper. Ready to push the Germans out of the Hürtgenwald or smash through the Westwall.
ReplyDeleteJasper very nice. I’m a huge fan of Artizan. Some do not like the bulk, which is what I think I enjoy. I’ve for the same figures some done some not.
ReplyDeleteWell done

Another vote for Artizan minis here, they are great. Nice work on this group of chilly GI's.
ReplyDeleteVer6 nice work on these figures, they look well bundled up.
ReplyDeleteSuitably chilly; there's something about the gloves that really sells them.
ReplyDeleteVery nice highlighting on the faces and coats
ReplyDeleteVery fine looking troops Jasper!
