Looking for something else I found a squadron of Sherman tanks with a rattlecan base coat and nothing else. I can’t date them but I reckon they must be around 5 years old. Yep, well past due to get a little attention at the paint table.
They are 15mm from Plastic Soldier Company. My brother tells me they are early war because the hulls are rounded and not the riveted late war bodies. I thought the 1:72 one I completed recently was little. These are very cute. Here is one sitting next to a 1:56 version from Warlord Games.
The commander took about 45 seconds to paint, including shaking the paint pots.
I enjoyed painting these tanks. It seems some more 15mm may be in order and I happen to have a half finished British desert army. As you do.

Great stuff. I paint various scales but find I keep coming back to 15mm. I’m not the best painter in the world and it’s a forgiving scale especially when you want to get toys on the table and play games vs have them for display. With modern weapons the figure to range issues are somewhat mitigated as well, which I find is a bonus. 🙂

I agree; while some folk can still do amazingly detailed work in 15mm (and smaller), an overall impression can go a long way to making a nice looking army

Nicely weathered 15mm Sherman’s. Yes, the rounded hulls were earlier, but could be found throughout the war.
