15mm Campaign Game Miniatures Napoleonic Brunswicks

hi all
I got these last year and figured as their mostly black they should be a quick win.
The figures are very nice indeed, couple of mold lines but nothing like old glory.
I have put on the base colours, I will give them a wash and highlight. Hopefully finished Wednesday

TANKS GF9 15mm tabletop game Salute 2016

Hi all
I couldn't resist the chance to pick up the new TANKS game from GF9'at Sulte on Saturday.
Myseldpf and a friend teamed up to play and it was fast paced and good fun. Unlike Flames of war a Sherman can take a bit of damage from a Panther before brewing up in this game. Maybe not historically accurate but good fun.
In the box you get a card for all of the current plastic tanks available from Battlefront.
So not only the advertised US Sherman and Panther but British and Soviet cards as well.
As I have a load of painted 15mm tanks I jumped at this.
Here's a very quick unboxing vid, I hope it helps

A "Cam" bridge too far 2016 Bolt Action tournament prizes

Hi All
In March myself and two friends went to Cambridge for a one day Bolt Action tournament.
We had a blast and I even managed 2 wins.
Everyone who entered got some free gifts and mine was a Rubicon US M8



Really please with the model. I also managed to fubar in my last game and picked up a spot prize of Black Tree US Marines with Thompsons.

15mm Zvezda Sdkfz 222,

Hi all
I picked up 6 Zvezda Sdkfz 222, after reading everyone else's reviews I took my time and tidied up all of the clipped parts to make sure they joined tightly.
After the first vehicle it was a doddle.
I gave them a quick paint job with no highlights to see how they turned out.
Overall I'm quite happy with the models, highlighting, transfers and painting still needs to be completed. I hope you like

ACW black powder update

Hi all
A quick update on the Pendraken ACW. A load of Union cavalry done and the rest of my infantry, 27 battalions with 6 larger battalions. Basing still needs to be done

10mm ACW from Pendraken

flags have been added. Still a few stands to paint. 
Cavalry, guns and commanders still to paint.
I need to finish the bases and edge paint the flags. The flags are clearly for historical reference only!
