The Analogue Hobbies Painting Challenge

Welcome to the Painting Challenge. Here you will find the fabulous, fevered work of miniature painters from around the world. While participants come from every ethnicity, gender, age and nationality, they have three things in common: they love miniatures, they enjoy a supportive community, and they want to set themselves against the Challenge. This site features the current year's event along with the archives of past Painting Challenges. Enjoy your visit and remember to come back soon.

From JamesM: 15mm Cromwells (again!) - 24 Points

Hi folks,

I should be pretty well known, after this many challenges, for sticking with a theme like a dog with a bone... In this case, yet more Russian Uniform green 15mm vehicles.

Another troop of Cromwells for my 1st Polish Armoured Division project! This is the 2nd of four combat platoons. Don't worry, I'll post a picture at the end of the challenge to prove I'm not just taking different pictures of the same models over and over.

These are Plastic PSC 15mm Cromwells, painted and decalled up to be a troop from C Squadron, 10 Pulk Strzelcow Konnych (10th Polish Mounted Rifles). This was the Armoured Recce regiment of the Polish division. Painted as part of my Flames of War Normandy project.

As usual, decals have been applied for relevant the unit and aerials added. Commander model to be added at a later date, and twin aerials help identify the command vehicle. Two more such troops to go for the full squadron, and I hope to get at least one more done before challenge ends - baby permitting!

These three tanks come in at 8 points each, giving 24 for the unit.
