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.

    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? Nota nice looking chap That's not going to clear up anytime soon! Nasty rash there Puss, but no boots   Thought Sharke needed some support, so when I ordered terrain from Alternative Armies, I added a certain Sergeant. He's a BIG unit!

Blizkeig Commander IV - Hasty Assault

Mark and Stephen took my British at 1750 points, with effectively the same lists as before, but with two turns of preprogrammed artillery and a turn of smoke to assault my 1100 points of Germans who were in dugouts and gunpits. I chose to defend the four hills near my baseline. I has three HMGs, three mortars, two command teams and six infantry platoons, with two PAK36s teams. PAK36s and mortars on the back hill, two infantry and an HMG on the front. Infantry and Mortars in the left hill as a flank guard British stalled, turn 1 they failed to reach the table, so it took them at least four turns to advance. Artillery had landed on the right-hand hill, and rear hill, but had failed to kill anything, even with two 8 gun batteries of 25lbers . My ambush was sprung out the thicket. British infantry advancing developed an unfortunate habit of getting hit by mortars and HMGs. The British in turn 6 cleared the central hill with armour, but needed to get at least three infantry stand...
