French 1/72 WWII infantry from Pegasus, Caesar and Battlefield Miniatures


The painting table has been terribly neglected lately, but at last something is finished.
This batch is some French WWII gun-crew, big men (for IABSM) and soldiers.
Paints used (mainly Vallejo):
Uniform: 873 US Field Drab (seem to be the best, will continue using that) or 879 Green Brown (the lighter tone)
Helmet: 888 Olive Grey
Belts: Formula P3 Bootstrap Leather
Boots: 871 Leather Brown
Equipment (backpack etc): 914 Green Ochre
Everything washed with Citadel Devlan Mud
Level 3 Big Man from Pegasus
Level 2 Big Man from Caesar
Two soldiers from Pegasus
Three crew from Battlefield Miniatures manning a 25 mm anti-tank gun from Hinchcliffe.

French Hotchkiss 25mm anti-tank gun from Hinchcliffe

French 25mm Hotchkiss anti-tank gun
This one is from Hinchcliffe too, just like the artillery, but much higher quality. Recommended.
I painted it with Vallejo 975 Military Green, dry-brushed with a lighter green and topped off with some pigments.
Here we have another of these guns I finished last year. The crew is a mix, three men from Battlefield Miniatures (lovely models!), one (in the back to the left) is from Caesar’s French infantry, and one, not seen in this picture, is a modified Airfix WWI French infantry-man that originally releases a pigeon.
