FRENCH MARINES 28mm

Finally finished my French Marines for French Indian Wars, they are Conquest Miniatures available from Warlord games, lovely models to paint.

Marines moving into position to engage British troops.
The figure on the right came with his right hand up in the air, since I had 2 of the same figures I decided to cut it off and reposition it over his musket with the help of some Green stuff putty to remodel his hand.
These two figure will be used as Leaders.
I decide to paint half on the Marines in a blue clothing  and the other half in a white and had a bit of variety in the colouring of their caps.

CHEERS JOHN

  3. Smashing painting John! Funnily enough the blue you used seems to be pretty close to the Horizon Bleu I use on my WW1 French.

    1. Thanks Nick for your comments, yes I agree I just looked up your French WW1 painting, very similar colour, I mixed mine using VMC flat Blue with a pinch of black Grey and a bit of sky grey as the base and kept adding sky grey as I was highlighting the mini.
      cheers John
