where has the time gone.

Hey; as if anyone really reads this. update coming soon, lot of water under many bridges. Moved, finished a few projects, abandoned a couple more, started some new ones as well. could i be more vague...

TWENTY SiX

offered to make some terrain for Scenario Brian is running at Historicon.
4 - 1Base size huts.
to make the woven mat sides i glued the priority mail box to some textured cloth. Hope to have them done by Sun. Currently they are drying after a coat of a slurry of clear acrylic, white glue, powdered wall paper paste and some water to make it less gel like.

TWENTY FoUR

so here are some werds. i need to update my list etc, have not done so due to massive building in prep for GPT visit which is now sadly over. During the "big push" i built
1 1 base "church" white building
2 2 story 4.5 base "industrial" buildings (mirror images of each other)
3 .5 base aka "team" base sheds
approx 20 trees
6 KO'd vehicle markers
-------------
2 grilles -w- crew
1 8.8cm puppchen AT option for my CO HQ
2 kubel wagens --------------------------- whew...
so my armored panzer grenadier company is mostly complete except decals, etc etc. however i am very close to having a complete 15/20mm "town".
in addition to those listed above i have previously built
3 3 story "row" haus
1 2 story mid east esque building
2 1 story 1 base houses
SO i feel i need...
1 factory
1 dorm 60mm x 100mm
combo set of similar
1 2 story store 60x60
2 2 story row haus 40x60
1 2 or 3 story administration building ( which i plan to make a sort of quadrangle -w- a 40x40 core -w- 40x40 quads -w- a 100 x 100 2nd and possibly 3rd level)
more trees and more explosions
so i've started 18 trees and 7 explosions

TweNTY ThREE

Battle 4 was not fought to it's completion, however i had just routed all the soviet infantry as seen in the last pic.

TwENTY TWo

Battle 3 GPT had given me a Tiger 1 so i thought it only appropriate for him to fight it. Battle 3 was mission 3 hold the line -w- the Tiger in ambush. Note in the last picture as the soviet infantry swarm past the Tiger trying to get out of it's way.

TwENTY oNE

Battle 2 soviet victory. Battle 2 soviet victory.

TWeNTY

GPT was down with his soviet tankov horde. Here are some images from our first of 4 battles. This came down to a duel between a grille -vs- battalion commander T34. Stormtrooper move victory. Battle One

NiNTEEN

gesso, i read some articles about using gesso to prime. Got some black at Hobby Lobby 40% off coupon. These pic's are the result. Was impressed enough to get a tub of white also 40% off coupon and plan on tinting it to first coat prime. Jury is still out.

EiGHTEEN

Well i've moved away from the list i started with, adding more options/tangents etc. If you look at the 3610 list on Brian's campaign "blog" you can see where i'm heading. . But here are table ready... Stug G's ,Tiger 1, sdkfz 222 and 223 patrol as always click the images for larger views.

SEvENTEEN

So here are the finished hauses. I may repaint the doors maybe not. Pretty happy -w- how they came out. Next time i would have the gable be attached to the side wall instead of the roof. Also shown here are primed StuG G's and Tiger 1.

SiXTEEN

i've started a "blog" for the campaign we are fighting. Check out the link to the right. Also werking on some more terrain. Here are some WIP images of the new 1FOW base houses. The applying the siding image didn't come out too good but you get the idea (maybe) This last pic shows the unprimed "finished" product, -w- some super easy glue clump flock to a primed washer "trees"

FiFTEEN

To Flock or Not to Flock... After applying a wash to my infantry stands i'm debating whether to flock them or not. The Jury is still out. Here are my Platoon Commanders.. Here are some platoons.. This is my Mortar HQ and Spotter Team..
