Stug IV (Late), Dragon, 1:72

As promised here my last project started in my holidays. A Stug IV from Dragon. Brilliant details, a wonderful kit. O.k. it has a lot of parts but it is a pleasure to build it.

Panzer IV, Revell, 1:72

Here you can see another Kit I started in my holidays. I had an hour or two every evening for building, that´s why I made this progress. Today Revell`s Panzer IV. A beautiful kit wich can take on kits made by Dragon. I stopped the building at that stage because I want to paint these parts first.

Fachwerkhaus, Fantasy-Gelände-Modelle, 1:72

Here is another great kit from Fantasy Gelände Modelle. A "Fachwerkhaus", I don´t know the correct translation. I just sprayed the roof with terracotta spray. I will enjoy the building and painting because the details are wonderful.

Cadian HQ, Games Workshop

As mentioned yesterday I found a Toy Store in a small town nearby my holiday place with a small range of Games Workshop Products. I couldn`t resist to buy this Command Unit for my imperial troops. Because I had only my "basic holiday unit" with me, consisting of a small box with plastic glue, a sharp knife, a cutter and some sand paper, I only build them. The painting will follow. Beside these figures I started two more kits, the Pictures will follow the next days.

Sd. KfZ, 251/9 Ausf. C, Revell, 1:72

Back in town...
Greetings, my friends. After a few days of silence I want to show you a new Project I started this one during my one week holiday at the baltic sea. The Sd.Kfz. 251/9 with the short barrel gun. Still W.I.P. but a great kit from Revell. O.K. the tracks went on my nerves, but only because I hadn`t the patience for these single part track-segmnents. All fits good and I think this one will reinforce my troops soon.
In a small toy shop I surprisingly found some WH 40 K Stuff and bought a Cadian Command Troop. But this will followe tomorrow.







And welcome to svinehunden & kingsleypark!
Nice to have you here!

Panther G, Armourfast, 1:72, update

I just have to go to the next buisness trip so I will post just an update of the Panther after washing him with diluted oil colours. Next Step: Highlighten of the edges.
I´m sorry but I can´t answer your comments for the next days!

German Forces for "Behind Omaha"

My "Behin Omaha" Forces needed reinforcments. I´ve shown you the Medics last week and here you find the rest of them. A "Fire Team", two Officers, two Panzerfaust and three Flamethrower. They will add my existing 4 Platoons when needed. The last part will be more MG`s, but they have to wait a few days, because I´m busy with work in the moment. These are again figures I painted in the last two years and now they left the shelf for action!

Reworking a Gameboard

Yesterday I reworked one of my Gameboards. It was much too brown. So I added more static grass (as you can see, the woodglue is still wet) and drybrushed the whole board. Then I decided to do a wash. I used diluted oil colours and that probably was a mistake. The "Thinner" flowed under the paint at two points and started to melt the underground. Sh... happens! Fortunately it didn´t ruin the whole board. I think, now I have to rework it again and the holes will become some bomb crates...

My now finished Medics (The bases got a wash, drybrush and static grass) made a first reconnaissance.

Seamen, Pegasus, 1:76

I just finished the seamen from the LCVP by Pegasus. The beautiful weather allowed to make some pictures outdoor. I also reworked one of by gameboards. Pictures will follow later this day... And welcome to Plastic Hussar with his Blog http://plasticpelisse.blogspot.com/

Russian Truck, Zvezda, 1:100

Today I want to show the last Zvezda Kit I bought two weeks ago. The Russian Truck. Sureprisingly this one got an engine. You also can open the engine bonnet. Again a nice kit from Zvezda!

JS-2 Stalin, Italeri, update

Weekend!!! After a hard week two days of recreation are welcome...Yesterday afternoon I continued the work on the JS-2. After a preparation with "Glänzer" I put on the decals. Then the tank was washed with diluted oil colours (Burnt Umbra). I have to admit that the result is a still very clean tank.Hmm, I think I have to do te last step again. A nice weekend to all of you!

And welcome to Laughing Ferret! I love your Blood Bowl Team. Wonderful...Here you can find them http://laughingferret.blogspot.com/

Medics, Revell, 1:72

Last time I played "Behind Omaha" I recognized that Medics are very useful and that I haven´t got enough of them. Because I plan to paint one more platoon I started to fill the "Medic-Gap" first. Here are the results. I used some older Figures I painted one or two years ago and repainted them and added some bags and weapons. The three "Running Men" are from the Revell set "German Armoured Infantry" and the other one from Revells "Afrika Korps". I put them on bases. The bases aren`t finished yet, they need a drybrush and some static grass. But I`m satisfied with the results.
