If you have some more marching poses, send them to me for the GB. I think everybody loved to see your figures face to face...

We never had a participant from Brazil!

Very nice, a great variety of realistic colors, well done

Boy, are these some unattractive uniforms or what? But your painting and photography makes them really pleasant to look at.

And please, feel free to flood forum with pictures of your wok anytime.

[Mr. Andrea]

awesome work, pal! And I am happy that that same Hat box is on the way to my home, though I am not sure I will manage such a high quality brushwork!

matgc--

Superb painting of those militia men. I did not have time to visit your blog yet, so if the answer is there, sorry. About howl long did it take you to do these plates?

Wow! Tears on my eyes for not being mine...

@Bluefalchion, I usually paint a couple units at a time, and it takes me 2-3 weeks to finish it, from removing mold lines on the bare plastics to applying static grass to the painted bases. I work on them about 2 hours every evening, except sometimes on the weekends.

With these militia, I decided to paint 3 units simultaneously, instead of my usual 2, because their uniform is so simple, I figured it would be pretty straightforward to do, and also because the number of models in the box were enough to make 3 units, so there was no point in making 2 and then having to return to the subject later.
