Hi, my last two Youtube videos, 100% Peter Pig (except some Minairons vehicles): YouTube link (SCW Republicans) YouTube link (SCW Nationalists) Pierre |

Very nice! And all the weird armored cars are interesting. I wasn't aware of the French unit with the Nationalists. I'll need to look into them. |

Very well painted!! About that of French volunteers on the Nationalist side, I wasn't aware either. It seems that around 300-500 men enlisted in the Spanish Foreign Legion and formed a specific 'Bandera' or Battalion there ( link ). Given their unit's small size, I'm pretty doubtful they were given any particular uniforms or official flag; so likely dressing as regular Legionaries, just as happened with Irish and White Russian volunteers. However, assigning special features to this unit does certainly add colour to the tabletop, so I applaud the author! Just for comparison, about 10,000 to 15,000 French volunteered in the International Brigades, so being by far the most numerous foreign contingent in the Republican side. Lluís |

As Lluis says, very nice painting. His link to the Bandera Jeanne d'Arc does suggest a different Bandera flag, though. |

All I can say is wow! Incredibly well done Pierre/Martin! I love Peter Pig and have for a very long time (going all the time at back to that discontinued late medieval range). My SCW project is in 10mm, I think I might have to watch this and pause it on the International Brigade when I paint my 10mm version. The use of so many shades of brown really captures the essence of what I want to accomplish. |
