Joker claimed!

This is not likely to be among my most thrilling posts.

But following on from yesterday, I have painted the French mortar, and so have completed the army!

It's ok if the understated beauty of this picture makes you cry a little bit.

The medium howitzer I posted about doesn't count, because shut up.

Since this completes the project, I get a new joker available for use. Which is nice, but I in no way need to buy more models at the moment, so I won't be using it, at least for now.

At some point there may well be a picture of the whole force, when I have time to set up and take one without toddlers becoming involved.

So here are some updated stats...

For 2015 so far:
Painted: 73
Bought: 47

And for the Challenge:
Painted: 16
Jokers Used: 1
Jokers Earned: 1

  6. I was looking at your old posts, and most of your photos are on a red (or green) background. The armoured car, on a white(ish) one, I like better. It's crisper, and easier to judge the colour tones.

    I quite like the ground cover on this base. It'd be awesome to see it with some crew.

  7. Nice work on your mortar base, I'd second DaveB's suggestion about backgrounds.

    Well done on completing the French, a joker well earned!
