Bench Update for 6mm US and Diabolical Terrain

 Most of the US armor was bought painted from I-94 Industries. The infantry has yet to be purchased but the support units are completed.








Really nice 3D prints from Diabolical Terrain 




Bench Update 6mm WW2 Germans

 So far the German army is almost complete. I am not flocking the bases as they will be used for the Battle of the Bulge and possibly Normandy. This is my first attempt in 6mm.

Work Bench September 2023 part 2 - 6mm

 The GHQ armor is for a 2024 game for Fistful of Tows or Rapid Fire. They are placed on 20mm square and 20mmx30mm bases. I was able to finish the Panthers, King Tigers, Mark IV, Sdkfz 251, Opel Blitz trucks, mortar teams and MG teams. 






Work Bench Update September 2023

 Now that the American figures are completed I am starting on the German Panzer Grenadiers. I picked up these figures at Historicon. They were primed white with a base coat and several washes of Agrax Earthshade and Nuln oil between paint layers to get a proper Cammo look. 


I tried pea dot on a few fisures and other cammo patterns displayed on the box. The panzerfaust figure was fun to paint. 


I also notice that these are larger than the Caesar and Pegasus figures and won't look too good on the same table with the Italeri figures. These painted quicklyand are the better of all available kits.
