Very nicely done - very crisp. 

I think I have been under a misapprehension on Italian uniform colours - as having seen yours in grey, and some others recently in grey, this surprised me. I'm not entirely sure what colour I thought Italian uniforms where - perhaps an olive green?

Lovely paint job there.

But . . .

There's some odd things about the sculpts, methinks. Honestly, first glance at the photo above I thought they were zombies for a wierd ww2 game. Very odd facial expressions. Problems with some hands as well, got the 'bunch of bananas' problem. And what's with the guy's thumb front & second right?

Interesting.  I am about to do a 6mm Italian Army for the same campaign.  I have acquired the RAL7009 Green-Grey for the uniforms; what did you use?

Vincenzo21

Sure, no problem. Uniform - AK3142 Field Grey Base 2.

I would love to see pics when your done.
