PSC 10mm tanks for PSC and Simon.

 Si asked me to paint some spare tanks from the PSC new 10mm plastic 10mm WW2 range for PSC to go with 'Divisions of Steel' (due out in the New Year). These MIGHT go on towards the art on the boxes, maybe. Pity I only had a few days to do them, but hopefully they are okay.

Starting with British Shermans


Understrength squadrons.




What's missing? Oh yeah, all the flames.


Same lighting conditions, same paint, why does the firefly look yellower?


Still does

Weird

Universal carriers (the centre section is a seperate piece, some trimming required)


Drat, stars weren't straight


Think the sides warped?


Least happy with these tbh  :'(


Churchills (my 2nd favourite WW2 tank)


Tank tracks warped, had to really shape these back to fit


Rumble


Longstop Hill, drop the bucket... I always get those two mixed up!

Okay, those look good!


Mighty


Waiting to reply...

Panzer IVHs


von Luck woz 'ere!


Panzers vor!


Bendy barrels


EXTERMINATE!


Bit clean maybe!


Muddy stug(gy)s


Lurking stug...


Hidden stug


Brrrrrmmm


Some say confidence is a virtue for the habitual voyeur of what is known as, stug-life


Panthers-painted and then one of the turrets disappeared -gah!


Pandas advance


Brewer's droop? Since straightend


 That's a BAD day for the British armour!


But a good day if you're a typhoon pilot




And this makes it a VERY bad day for the allied armour!


Nasty


The temptation to paint a pink paint splat on it's rear was massive!


Ohh, they brought squishy friends!


Brum...


Here comes the infantry

Machinegun broke on the middle one!


Cram them in!


Photographed them, packed them all up, sealed the boxes carefully, wrote the address and then found the missing turret!


Oops, sitting on the floor, just by my daughter's piano stool.


No, I definitely checked there! Oh well, package reassembled and sent now.

  1. Stars misapplied? Canadians! They didn't like painting targets for German AT gunners, so either missapplied them or "forgot" ;)

The random miniatures in my lead pile thread

Hi all, As the months go on, I am finding more random stuff that does not fit into any catagory is creeping it's way up to the surface of my lead mountain.  I decided a few years back, rather than just throw it back like one of Nobby's escaped socks, I would actually paint some of them   Mutant Zombie by CP Models Or just a mutant?

Soldiers of Napoleon - Imperial Guard vs Austrians.

 Mark and I met up for a game at Leighton Buzzard Wargames Club. My Imperial Guard vs his Austrians, but he had taken an earlier list (1806), whereas mine was back to 1811. This time saw the first fielding of my new Young Guard. My plan was to adance the guard through the two villages, one brigade had deployed forwards in the centre to accomplish this; then swing in from the left with the Gauard Heay Cavalry brigade. Unfortunately, Mark had other ideas! He had deployed with his cavalry brigade screening forwards. Then it all really went his way. Soldiers of Napoleon has three things you can do on each card, an amount of units that can move, a rally state and special events. Sometimes, the cards fall absolutely how you want them to, sometimes, they don't. Turn one and Mark had been dealt two sets of 'At the quick' special event cards, allowing a march and then a manouver (or vice versa) for three units. Exactly the amount of cavalry units in his brigade! Combined with a ...
