forces i ve been way too distracted with other things and process has been painfully slow but i am finally getting to the point where i ll be able to field the full starter force so i went and took some photos overall i went with a more late roman than celtic look not based on any hard evidence but simply on personal preference slightly biased since that s where my re enactment roots lie

and such the nva sure paints quickly once i figured how i wanted to handle the uniform colour two half evenings spent painting afternoon painting and chatting at murphy s heroes and then 2 hours or so finishing the basing the whole platoon the platoon consists of 3 9 man squads and one big man who only turns out on a good day in comparison to the usmc platoon with squads of 12 you got to feel sorry for these guys bunker to help these two guys out and since i had some spare putty going about i built 2 small bunkers one of which is shown above some of the squaddies kinda liked rpg gunner so i included one in every squad even if that is a bit too much for realism on patrol i used three different colours for the uniform all us khaki drab highlight to different shades of green geplaatst door

and a corpsman to complete the first platoon quite happy with how fast i ve been able to paint these little guys 10mm sure is a pleasure in that regards the whole platoon geplaatst door derk op 7 07

vietnam wargaming with charlie don t surf by too fat lardies i m using pendraken miniatures and found they paint up pretty well for 10mm fast too definitely faster than when i am painting 15mm company headquarters these two stands both in the cds rules represent big men the guys that get things to happen on the left hand side a senior nco on the right hand side the company command group with officer nco and rto the rto i had to convert from the anzac range as the us range doesn t have rtos platoon command in the middle of the first squad is the platoon command group consisting of the platoon commander and his rto again a conversion first squad here s the full first squad with platoon and company hq note that there s in total 7 converted figures in all cases i had to remodel bush hats to helmets in some cases more and in some cases less successful still on the table i don t think anyone will notice much oh and why contrary to what hollywood may have us believe it s really hard to come across any evidence whatsoever of guys within the same squad wearing bush hats and helmets who knows maybe they did figure that the helmer was useful in keeping their brains in one place i am pretty content with the camouflage patterns after washing and drybrushing they are subtle enough not to scream for attention i used the army pattern for the helmet covers and the newer camo pattern for some of the trousers primary difference being that i added black in the mix for the trousers geplaatst door derk op 7 03 2010 02 26 00 pm 3 reacties labels 10mm charlie don t surf pendraken usmc vietnam wednesday april 15 2009 wip giant nearly finished another evening of painting and i m happy with the big guy i think he will make an impressive intimidating opponent for my elves tomorrow i just need to varnish the bugger and then he ll be ready for basing on friday geplaatst door derk op 4 15 2009 09 49 00 pm 4 reacties labels 15mm fantasy giant miniatures this one s split monday april 13 2009 work in progress giant i decided my orc army for this one s split http thisonesplit blogspot com needs a few big dudes i liked the games workshop lord of the rings isengard troll so went for that figure it will do quite nicely as a giant in 15mm scale i ve put a 15mm demonworld orc next to him for size comparison started today and i did the base colours and wash and a first highlight of the metal and the skin overall i like the way the figure is starting to work out need to pay close attention to keeping it stylistically close enough to the 15mm army though planning to have at least one of those finished for the demo at action 2009 rheindahlen geplaatst door derk op 4 13 2009 05 21 00 pm 2 reacties labels 15mm fantasy giant miniatures this one s split friday march 27 2009 no painting done gone skiing this week i painted absolutely nothing instead i have been having far too much fun in fiss austria a full week of skiing and not a single broken limb some days were sunny and with excellent slopes others were significantly less sunny with heavy snowfall and 50cm of fresh powder hell of a lot of fun to ski and makes for nice shots after a fall i have been good though and worked some more on this one s split other than the magic system and flying troops seems we have most of the game mechanics down now needs a lot of playtesting though and i have the first few sketches for the magic system which now needs to be worked into an actual system geplaatst door derk op 3 27 2009 04 08 00 pm 0 reacties labels holiday skiing older posts subscribe to comments atom blog
