Lone Star British Paratroopers

Lone Star Paratroopers - The Mortar Section

 A little weekend project saw the painting of these wonderful old figures by Lone Star Harvey.  They date back to the 1950/60s and I have a couple of boxes of them.  There is another set in berets, but they have more modern weapons and wear battledress.

These figures make up the Mortar Platoon.  Somewhere I have some loaders, which I will add when I dig them out.

I painted these using Speed Paint, however, unlike my ancient figures I gave them a sepia wash and when that was dry, I dry brushed them to give some highlights.  

I am quite pleased with the results:
