The sixth and final infantry battalion has now been accepted into the Tratvian Army. Actually this is the Second (Rifle) Battalion and joins 1st Rifles and the Naval Infantry in 1st Infantry Brigade. All clear? Good.
Like most of the Tratvian Army these chaps are Armies in Plastic figures.
I have tried out a new varnish on this unit - Ronseal Outdoor Gloss Varnish. It takes rather longer to dry than the other stuff and being solvent based it's rather smelly, but it does give a lovely high gloss finish. I think I'll stick with it.
For extra stability all my 1/32 infantry are based on 30x40mm pieces of MDF.
Great beard acting on those men.

ReplyDeleteWith so much varnish it's difficult to shave...

A couple of these Tratvians offered to do the tiling in my bathroom. I paid them a deposit and that was the last I ever saw of them. :-(
ReplyDeleteGreat looking unit and one you really can say "ooh shiny" to.
