It's been a while, but I have finished the last five Gripping Beast Poilu on the painting table.

More pictures including some close-ups on Scrivsland: link

That Chauchat gunner is particularly nice. I wish they'd make one without the capote -- he could then be used all over the world, using various headswaps, for interwar gaming.

Thanks. Gripping Beast do do separate heads so you can pretty much choose what you want. I have some in kepi, some with bare heads and some with bandaged heads. There is a huge range of heads you can pick from (not just the French ones).

Nice figures nicely painted.

Nice work – they look appropriately 'weathered' without losing the detail.

Thanks chaps, I plan to pick up another batch from Gripping Beast next month. I have a couple of balanced forces then.
