I've now managed to get 2 senior leaders done, a platoon medic, almost 2 full infantry squads and a 30.cal support option done. I hope to get the full basic platoon done in the next couple of weeks and most of the support options as well.
Here is the Platoon Medic (support option), the Second Squad, Platoon Sergeant (Senior Leader) and half of the 30. Cal Machine Gun team.
So my project tracker looks like this:

Still some way to go. But the Perry plastics are so easy to paint I should get the basic platoon done in the next week or so.
I was also working on a German platoon to be the opponents in the campaign. I started with the Warlord plastics, but just couldn't get on with them. Fiddly figures to put together and bad poses. So I ditched them in the "Box of Abandoned Projects" and ordered a whole new platoon from Empress Figures. I think the Empress are more in line with the Perrys and the figures look good - plus, I really prefer metal over plastic. That said, if the Perrys were to make late war Germans......
