No it doesn't appear too bad if i am honest, i aim to get the last 6 stands of regulars painted today as well as a Ural or two so hopefully more pictures.

I really am liking these loads - Pete did this with thes figs IIRC - but [& you know how it is...] nothing came to nothing... I'd love to see more completed pics etc & a rounded-out forec for this one in 10mm - tres coolio
Oliver Joined 08/02/08 Last Visit 02/02/10 9 Posts	Posted on 28 May 2009 at 11:04:36 GMT Cheers (again) nik didny know that about pete... Well theres some more pics up nik and few comparisons specially for you
Oliver Joined 08/02/08 Last Visit 02/02/10 9 Posts	Posted on 28 May 2009 at 15:40:23 GMT Well that's the infantry all varnished now just got to leave them over night and decide on how to base them. Also does anyone know if the Pandraken British Airborne have Berets?
nikharwood Joined 14/08/05 Last Visit 03/12/24 1472 Posts	Posted on 29 May 2009 at 15:54:00 GMT Not many of them - have a look here: http://nikharwood.pbworks.com/BKC+British+Airbo... Best packs for berets: BR15 Airborne Officers BR83 Combat engineers [not Airborne but the minesweeper's got the beret] BR98 'Monty' [he's got a beret!] BR105 Arnhem special command group Dunno if these'd be useful too: BR55 Riflemen Slouch Hat BR56 Sten Slouch Hat BR57 Bren Slouch Hat BR107 Commandos mixed weapons Thanks for the comparison pics too - I'm not entirely convinced, but it might be because you've not painted them yet

The BR105 Arnhem command group only has the radio op in a beret (but they are nice figures!)
