Perry miniatures Desert Rats featured in the Salute Perry North Africa Diorama

More pics retrieved from the old steam powered laptop. Boy was it making some very strange noises!

Here we have the Perry Desert Rats which were painted up for their North African diorama for Salute 2013.

The miniatures were painted by me, the rest of this lovely piece was put together by the dynamic duo. Looking at the brushwork again here I think I would have opted to use Vallejo German Cammo Dark Brown instead of the Vallejo Matt Black undercoat. The black undercoat showing through seem to be too stark a contrast with the light uniforms. I will make a mental note of that.

    1. Thanks Michael. I just pained the mini's, the real work was done by the Perry Twins.

      I never did get down to Salute in 2013 to see it. I've actually only ever seen photographs! :>)

    1. The miniatures are all Perry Plastics but the Valentine tank is from Blitzkrieg models. The building, I think, looks very much like a Grand Manner offering.

      I was only involved with painting up the miniatures.
