I've wanted an 8th Army force for so long, but since I primarily play at 28mm I've shied away from it. But this just blows my mind, I never thought something so small would look this good.<br /><br />I'm going to buy some and, *ahem* borrow all of your ideas here. Any chance I could get list the pack codes you purchased?<br /><br />Keep up the great work.<br /><br />TimboTimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03620926745225120350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4784390992211969614.post-68758431603061916282009-12-30T18:46:17.151-08:002009-12-30T18:46:17.151-08:00With 3mm moderns, I definitely find it easier to b...With 3mm moderns, I definitely find it easier to base, then paint. With 2mm Napoleonics, I paint, then base.<br /><br />It just makes it easier to shove the paste in without worrying about screwing up the paint job. Plus, at this scale, if you can`t get a brush in, nobody`s going to see it anyhow, so it saves time.Thaddeus Gregory Blanchettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09359423010378429288noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4784390992211969614.post-38522595288522952922009-12-30T14:46:49.158-08:002009-12-30T14:46:49.158-08:00Hi there, an absolutely great 'how-to' rep...Hi there, an absolutely great 'how-to' report there, brilliant stuff, and some great photos of the cracking little, and I mean little, 3mm sculpts - it's amazing how much detail they manage to put on- easily recognisable and characterful - the universal carriers and the Grants in particular.<br /><br />Some really good ideas about the 'differentiation' basing for quick recognition; must try that with some of my 2mm stuff!<br /><br />Keep up the good work , would like to see more like this! ;-).SteelonSandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12231931971295669901noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4784390992211969614.post-36353158507918678822009-12-30T14:27:27.445-08:002009-12-30T14:27:27.445-08:00Interesting that you base before you paint.

Do you find that easier than painting before basing? <br />My first attempt with 3mm is to attach the vehicles (and a few standing infantry) to lolly (popsicle) sticks to paint, then base.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
