So after almost three months since I bought them I'm finally finished my most recent box and I've got to say they were a lot of fun to paint! So much so that I'm going to order another box after I've got through the recent Victrix stuff I've bought. Any comments will be appreciated! I really like reading all your comments and suggestions!

You had them three months before you got around to painting them? Hah! Amateur! Seriously though – I like them. Job well done. Seen so many of these plastic Perry's you would think one would get bored looking at them. Not me. |

Thanks guys! Haha yeah Brian I had them sat around a lot! First before I put them together and then again when I got fed up of painting so much blue! Think I might need to pick another nation soon just to give my blue paint pot a break! |

Nice paint job. What blue paint did you use. |

I used a base layer of night blue, and then highlighted it with a 50-50 mix of night blue and ultramarine blue. I was really pleased with it. When I first tried it I thought it would be far too light. |

Very nice work! However I believe that one must leave figures to mature for two or three decades before they are fit to paint! |
