I started painting an early WW2 Polish army
two years ago, and wanted to flesh it out with a few more support
weapons and vehicles. For this submission I have completed a Polish 10th
Motorized Brigade Squad, a Polish Army Medium Motor Team, a boxed set
of Polish Army Marksman, Anti-Tank Rifle, and Light Mortar teams, and a
Polish Vickers E 6 ton Tank, all from Warlord Games. All are 28mm or
1/56 scale with the foot figures cast in metal and the Vickers 6-ton
cast in resin. The armoured car is actually a 1/48 scale plastic model
of a Soviet FAI-M light armoured car by Ace Models, a company out of
Kyiv, that I picked up from a local hobby store. I painted it in Polish
camouflage to stand in as a proxy for a Samochód pancerny wz. 34 light armoured car. As with the Polish Army miniatures I had already done, these were painted using Vallejo acrylics and then treated with Army Painter Strong Tone Quick Shade.

Thanks for reading.
