This is part of my entry for The Guild Speed Build- on requirement is that it has to be on a 30mm base. This "Bacon marker" (TM) :D, consists of plastic 1/72 pigs from Pegasus farm animal set:
Proof of 30mm base. To be precise 32mm mudguard/fender washer. |
Next, "The British"...
No surprises here, more commandos, one from Wartime Miniatures, the other from AB:
Wartime left, AB right |
"Fancy some nice crispy bacon Bill?" |
Another entry for speed build, a prone German about to lob a grenade- this figure is from the small but excellent "Sojers" range of 20mm WW2 stuff, check it out here or here :
And just for fun....
Bill & Ernie, temporarily distracted by the prospect of bacon are about to cop a "potato masher"! |
A1 work there John, your Commando fetish is continuing without abatement!
ReplyDeleteLovely all around.
Mmmm bacon...
Cheers Paul. There will be a slight slow down on commandos, as I have a bunch of Germans on the painting table at the moment :)
DeleteLooks like bacon's back on the menu boys!
Very nice work on those figures, and great pictures too!
ReplyDeletePhil.
Thanks Phil, a bit of an assortment in this post :)
DeleteVery nice work John. Poor wee piggies... :-)
ReplyDeleteThanks Nick.
DeleteThose piglets better scramble before that grenade gets thrown....
The baconer seems to be accompanied by a trio of yumm- I mean nice little porkers as well. I recommend no cloves in the apple sauce, but lime juice and/or lemon pepper is very good... mmm...
ReplyDeleteSounds very tasty indeed ;)
DeleteGreat work. The grenadier really looks the part, hopefully he doesnt intend using that potato masher on the poor pigs. Bacon and mash.....ymmmm
ReplyDeleteYes, they could become porky casualties...run piggy, run!
DeleteThanks for your kind words :)
I'd forgotten all about the exploits of the Kings Own Porcine Division, good to see them have their moment in the sun. Hopefully they won't get captured and grilled for information...
ReplyDeletePerhaps the Germans will hunt them down with their deadly Schwinehund, then those porkers will be able to squeal "Achtung Schwinehund!"
DeleteGreat look and god paint really nice
ReplyDeleteCheers
Cheers, from the Sarge to the Cap'n.
DeleteCrispy bacon is being served...Sir!
ReplyDeleteNice work in all three models John! :)
Thanks Mr. T.
DeleteBringing home the bacon eh? ;)
Those Wartime commandos are very nice sculpts that have benefited greatly from your paint work.
ReplyDeleteThanks Richard, yes I've been pleased with the stuff I've purchased from Wartime, great little miniatures- and from Oz :)
