Painted very small soldiers...


Well, I threw a little paint on these guys, just to see how they would look!

Here they are with some 10mm British and some 25mm ACW Federals... the smallest guys are TINY!!

I painted them up as French troops; doing the blanket rolls and turnbacks took an extra second, but it wasn't really that hard. I tried to make the packs look correct (i.e. the cow pattern) but I am not sure it worked...?

Anyone have any guesses as to the size of these guys?

How did you paint 1mm troops?

Very, very carefully:)

Wow, they are small. Imagine the wargaming possibilities. Next challenge, paint a 1mm flag.

I'm going to guess they are three and 1.5mm respectively - they are very well done.

As for painting flags - how can you tell if it's good or bad without a microscope?

Wow, those look really good. I'd love to have an army of those. I like the idea of having as many figures as possible, but the smaller scales seem to always have disproportioned people. These look pretty good.
