Posted on 03 July 2010 at 10:20:26 GMT I would like to try some early war as a change from all those Tigers/Elephants/Fireflys etc. All my BKC figs. are Pendraken LW 10mm. as Pendraken do not have any French inf.I wonder how Minifigs 12mm. would look alongside them, would they look too big? Thanks,Ivan. |

Posted on 03 July 2010 at 15:30:57 GMT I've mixed Pendraken and Minifigs for my Russians and they look fine. Difference in height in minimal, Minifigs are slightly skinnier but the head/helmet size is pretty close (Pendraken slightly larger). I chose to base them separately but I know others at the club mix them on a base. Regards |

Posted on 03 July 2010 at 19:18:53 GMT I dont know about the minfigs/pendragon mix, but i do play early war. I am sure you will find it a refreshing change. |

Posted on 05 July 2010 at 21:25:26 GMT Pithead will fit in with Pendraken figures much better than Minfigs. I've got lots of Pithead French, and really like them from a painting and modelling PoV. But they haven't got on to the battlefield yet. Some pictures here, before the recent reinforcements arrived http://www.kerynne.com/games/French.html |

Posted on 06 July 2010 at 18:46:22 GMT they look good - I especially like the Lorraine carriers - did you paint the black outlines of the cammo, or use a pen? |

Posted on 06 July 2010 at 19:28:54 GMT I mix Minifigs, Pendraken and Pithead for my French. Works just fine for me. http://littlewars.se/french1940/main.html |
