28mm foundry Fallschirmjager finished, and shots of my ss in early M1943 camo pattern and a for random bits

 First up another work in progress for my son a landraider
 Next the mess that is my Mark IV first of i missed gluing a few bits on and now have lost them second i glued front hatches on around the wrong way how does that you might ask then as i took it out of the box to take photo i dropped it and damaged both paint and model on the other side oh well.


Below are pictures of my Bolt action Fallschirmjager army well the beginning of it its all foundry except the office in first photo which isn't part of the list












 Now we have some more ss that i painted up a month or two ago
 oh and i got my mortar completed and painted, when it turned up it was missing the main tube but warlord games sent a new pack plus a few other figures that had been broken, thanks guys




 I'm really enjoying painting myww2 stuff and have purchased my american para army plus a heap of guns and vehicles to finish my ss and paras, Good times

All Quite on the Martian front

Well to continue with the strange things on my painting table here are some tripods from a wee job i'm doing for a friend, I bought an air brush and have been doing a wee bit of experimenting with it  i think i did two weeks work in one day so was very happy these are for a 15mm game but these tripods are big you can see how they tower over my 15mm church in the background, they were very easy to put together and paint great fun, i have still a lot to do for the other armies yet. If anyone is interested in how i painted the eyes what colours and all that just let me know. the eyes are a lot better in really life than the photos.
