Thought I'd share my first go at 28mm figures, a few of Warlord's Fallschirmjager. I've relatively recently got into painting 28mm figures and have already accrued a substantial amount so here's my first crack. A few more pics are over here on my new blog (just started today). Hope you guys enjoy!

I think splinter pattern is one of the harder camouflages to paint because of the rain effect. Looks like you did a nice job with it! |

You look like an old pro to me. |

That's not an attempt, it's a definite success. Very nicely done. |

Not bad. Ive found that it helps to artificially lighten the background color of the smock to increase contrast and hilite your splinter pattern. |

Thanks for all the comments.I think next time I will try a lighter base colour, that one was german camo pale brown. They do come up a tad lighter in reality, my makeshift photo booth doesn't quite cut it haha. I'll probably look at selling them off now if anyone's interested just PM me. No room to store them as much as I'd like to |
