"Rebasing" my German Infantry, Part III

Yesterday I reworked the last of my German Troops for the "Behind Omaha" Game. Now some static grass will follow and the Mortar in the right gets a rack. Then the Germans are finished and the British Troops will follow. Really, a long term project :-(

Obviously my Problem with the Pictures in the Bloglists istn`t solved yet. :-(

CH-34 G & Kraka, Roskopf, 1:100

Today I will show you this Helicopter and a so called "Kraka" (Kraftkarren) with 20mm Gun from Roskopf.

Do someone know why my Posts aren´t shown with pictures in the Blog-Lists of other blogs? What have I done wrong???

English Archers, Revell, 1:72

Today my first Archers from Revell. I´m satisfied with the painting, but I will cut off the bow strings and replace them with something else.

8th Army - Half Time - Matchbox, 1:76

As promised here some pictures of the progress of the 8´th Army by Matchbox. 15 were finished, 16 more a ready for painting. I hope you like them, and I hope, my customer like them, too ;-)

Catachaner, Update (W.I.P.)

Yesterday I reworked the Catachans. I tried to cut of the mould lines and repainted these parts and some details. A light wash with ink was the next step. Still W.I.P.
And I finished the first half of my 8 th Army. Pictures will follow.
At last a welcome to In Chigh!

8th Army, Matchbox, 1:76

Today an update of my work on the 8th Army. 6 more are nearly finished. A last drybrush and a few details, like the grenade and that´s it. I like this set from Matchbox. Nice figures, well detailed and interesting poses. Now the first kilt in my life will follow soon....

And welcome to Greg!

New Stuff! And a look in the box of Zvezda`s T34

1 Tiger (Zvezda)
1 T 34 (Zvezda)
1 German Machine Gun Tema (Zvezda)
1 Russian Machine Gun Team (Zvezda)
1 Japanese 70 mm Gun (Waterloo 1815)
1 French Knights (Revell)
1 Livonia Knight (Zvezda)
1 U.S. Rangers (Pegasus)
1 German Artillery (Revell)

All the good things!

Nice Boxart

The pictures are promising

What I found inside is great!

The tracks!

A detail picture. I couldnt`t believe that this one is a snap kit!

Last but not least, the decals.

I was amazed! This one is a "Snap Kit" without gluing needed? Wow, but we will see after the assembling, if the pieces fit together.

Italian Folgore Division Infantry, Waterloo 1815, 1:72

UPDATE: I´ve heard about the earthquake in New Zealand and I hope, that our friends down there are o.K.! Best wishes to you, mates!

Today four Figures from Waterloo 1815. Three are from the Set "Folgore Division Infantry" and the one with the 8mm Breda M1937 machine gun is from the set "Folgore Division Light Artillery"

German Infantry, Matchbox, 1:76

Three more finished. Thats it with the germans for the next week. Now I have to go on with the 32 Matchbox 8´th Army Boys...

Catachaner

I was curious about the WH 40 K universe and when I found a troop of Catachans on ebay I bid for them. It was a troop of 18 Figures and I paid 4,50 € plus shipping. A lot of them were painted but a few were only prime coated black. Here you find my first attempts in this scale, because I never done something larger then 20 mm. Still work in Progress, obviously, but I like them.

This is half of the lot I bought. You can see, some of them were painted. I will rework them later!

Work of the last two days - Minis, Minis & more Minis

In the last two days I worked on a lot of figures, as you can see in the pictures.

Started this Bunch of Matchbox Minis

I put my 8´th army on bases





Based a few U.S. Soldiers

Welcome to Carlo Antonio!
By the way, yesterday the counter went to 50.000 Pageviews! Thanks for watching to all of you!

Transport Units, German Armed Forces, 1:100

Saturday! Time to clean up my collection of Vehicles of the German Armed Forces made by Roskopf. A little bit dusty. I collect them since my childhood.

Rebasing my Behind Omaha Troops, Part II

Yesterday I continued the reworking of the bases of my German Forces for the "Behind Omaha" Game. I think they look much better now. A few of them need some static grass, but then they´re finished. I would say, 2/3 are rebased now. Sorry, I haven`t reocginzed that some pictures are blurred. Perhaps I can make some new ones this weekend.

British Commandos, Matchbox, 1:76

I´ve managed to base my british Commandos from Matchbox. They also got a last drybrush. Nice Figures, they make me think about my childhood long, long ago ;-) No I´ve got a few more of them, so it will be a special unit for my "Behind Omaha" Forces.
