Finns Finito

Off the desk last month some Eureka and Foundry Finns, three rifle batns and some support elements.  I do like painting Snow miniatures, a simple grey undercoat, then highlight up to white. I still need to complete the armour and aircraft!

Wartime Modern Russian Federation Infantry


Modern Russian Federation Infantry

Just off the painting desk some of Wartime's new Modern Russian range, suitable for the end of the cold war and post cold war battles.


The figures are superb with excellent detail, I especially like the weapons, I painted them in two different variations of the Flora and woodland camouflage patterns. These figures really suit post 1990 (body armour and the new helmet), I have painted the 6B23 body armour in plain reed green as the original issue, now it is available and many different flora, woodland and digital patterns.

These chaps will be for my modern skirmish gaming.

Valkenswaard Table, It Never Snows In September

A great little scenario the kick off for our market garden weekend, with a nail biting finish, 30 corps failed to get off the table in six turns, so this changed arrival times on the next table.

The Typhoon is suspended on wire and a weighted stand.

A Bridge Too Far- It Never Snows In September Arnhem Wargaming Weekend

A great weekend wargaming the battle of Arnhem on my table, good to have it out again, this year we added Nijmegen I added my spare buildings and a few borrowed from Greg and Ian, unfortunately not many photos. I would like to thank all those members of the GVS club to our Arnhem weekend, special thanks to Richard M my fellow conspirator and to the players in no particular order Andrew, Ian, Chris, Greg, Peter, Todd, John, John, Kendo, Mick, Brett and Bruce.

dirty work

Bought a diecast front loader, all it needed was a slap of green paint  some schmincke pastels for weathering it.

Wartime Taliban and civilians

I have been quite busy lately finishing some long overdue projects here are a sample of some of the stuff finnished in the last two months, some wartime 20mm Civilans and Taliban (who could be used for any eastern insurgents) a lovely range and easy to paint.

Cold War Americans

Some of "Wartime Miniatures" latest release of Cold War Americans, still missing the support weapons which are currently being sculpted, the whole range is close to release I believe.

These figures can be used from 1963 (adoption of the M16 and M79) to 1981 (adoption of BDCUs and the Kevlar helmet)so will do for any cold war period american army, these figures could also play the part of any American equiped army of the 70s and the 80s, in fact they could even be used for any imagination nation if one is inclined.
