Greyhound WIP

Got some more work done on two Greyhounds. Most of the basic paintjob is done by now so looking forward to chipping, dirtying it all up and adding pigments! ;-)

Yesterday I took a quick photo of the minis I have ready for WW2 gaming. I really need to get some vehicles painted!

Alive and painting

Just a short WIP shot to let you know that I'm not just lurking. When everything works as planned I will have a game of Operation Squad later this week. I'll try to come up with a report.

So next post is on the way... ;-)

Operation Squad Tryout

Just a short notice that I am still doing stuff hobby related! We had a really good time trying out the Operation Squad rules. What I need is more terrain and a second painted squad. So will still be busy with 28mm WW2!

(Sorry for the crappy pics. Just some fast shots with my mobile)

I've been busy

Last base painted and now everything I need to test the rules for Operation Squad is done. Tonight these will get a good coat of gloss varnish followed by transfers and pigments to dirty the boots.

Hope you like them!

What is Operation Squad?

Glad you asked... something that got me back in painting my WW2 project again. After the Bull from my last post is now complete, he still needs a nice base. I already did a test but I am not sure if I will stick to it. So I put it aside for a while to work on something different and come back later with some fresh new ideas.

A few months ago I bought the Operation Squad rules. A ruleset I do really like and always wanted to give a try. A few weeks ago Warlord Games released the first expansion which covers all kind of vehicles. This got me back in setting up a small squad for some tryouts which do need some work and paint. On top of this Warlord announced a new Ruleset for 28mm WW2 gaming they will publish in a cooperation with Osprey.
Something that will get me wild surely.

So... what is next on my schedule? I currently work on some American Infantry.

Mostly American Infantry from Artizan but I couldn't find a nice medic. So.... I had to come up with a small conversion. The mini you can see on the right is a Offensive Miniatures American Paratrooper medic with legs from an Artizan American Infantry model. I think it will be the next I will work on when the BAR und the MG assistant are done. Hope you like them!
