Caesar. U.S. Infantry, 1:72

Today just a small update. I´ve got a bad cold and it´s difficult to paint when shaking and coughing all the time.

Have a nice weekend, whereever you are!

Italeri, German Pak Crew, 1:72

Inspired by a tutorial by Wiking (Wiking Paintworks) in the Behind-Omaha Forum I tried to paint these figures with a "Splintertarnung". My problem was I needed a very fine brush wich I hadn`t at home. But I tried it nevertheless. The result is o.k. for me, but the "Rain-Stripes" are too big. That was the best I could do. Next time I will try a toothpick for finer lines.




And welcome to CPBelt & jacksarge! Nice to have you here!

EDIT: I don´t know how to change the colours of the links in the text. But if you`re íntersted please klick at "tutorial" and Wiking Paintworks in the text above!

Armourfast, Sherman M4 A3, 75mm, 1:72

I nearly finished this Sherman. Yesterday I painted the road wheels, the tracks and highlighted the edges. I think it will become a last layer of matt varnish and I decided to put dirt/mud on these horrible tracks. But nevertheless it´s ready for action. The little groeund-plate was started some time ago. I used the bristles of a brush to start a corn field and I have to go on here. Then some grass flocks will follow and a finish of the painting. The good thing is that winter is coming, my favorite time for our hobby ;-)

Pegasus, Waffen XX Set 2, 1:72

After weeks of missing my favorite hobby I managed to go on with these figures. They´re nearly finished. A drop of ogryn flesh is missing on one figure and because they´re to glossy they need a layer of matt varnish. I also finished two U.S. Infantrymen. And I hope to complete the painting of a Sherman tonight.





It feels good to be back in buisness ;-)

I´m not dead....

Dear friends of wargaming and modelling!
I want to tell you that I´m still alive. But the workload in my job doesn´t allow to build modells, paint figures or post any new stuff in this blog. I hope that in the next weeks the situation will uncock. Until then I beg you pardon and I hope you will follow this blog again when new stuff is available.

See you and best wishes!
