Some pics of the Salamander army





Hi All,
I haven’t posted in ages. Moved most of my updates to YouTube.

So her she is

Epic 40k update

Hi after watching some you tube videos from Guerilla miniatures, I got the epic bug. Fast paced and very brutal. Here's some pictures of my progress.
A group picture. I want them to be space wolves so lots of painting to do.

15mm Forged in Battle Afrika corp

Hi all
Got these in a swap, enough for my new FOW DAK project
However moulding is an issue with some serious mood lines. Disappointing really considering these are new minis from Forged in Battle. Let's hope Battlefront do some plastics for the mid war release.

15mm Flames of War Soviet tank horde

Hi all another quick update.
I put together all those plastic tanks, magnetised the turrets and a few hulls to give me as many options as possible. Undercoated ready for the brush. Asks to Breakthrough Assault chaps for the army structure. I happily went mad as I do and added a few more lol.



Plastic Soldier Company 15mm Churchill's Flames of War

Another update. 15mm PSC Churchill tanks. 5 in the box they went together quite easily.
I managed to make various turrets for the dirpfferent options and magnetised them all.

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

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!

ACW cavalry 10mm Pendraken

Hi all
Another quick update on a smaller scale. 10mm Pendraken ACW Rebs. I picked these up to play Fire and Fury but with a movement tray I can easily play Black Powder.


I based 4 to a lolly stick the undercoated in Halfords grey.
