Title: WW2 Allied 10mm Project
Post by: madaxeman on 07 February 2021, 05:08:14 PM

The "refurbish and replace" campaign for my WW2 Blitzkrieg Commander collection is now gathering pace.

Or, put another way, painting stripes on German tanks is a right PITA so I have given myself a break and instead managed to bash out the entire allied contingent in a week or so as they have no cammo at all. The end result is a force containing models and figures from Pithead, Pendraken, Victrix, Butlers Printed Models, Minifigs and Arrowhead, all of which have been painted in a fetching and thankfully simple Bronze Green + drybrush scheme and based using my new basing system of stained sand on mdf bases.

There are loads more photos of these models on the Madaxeman website (https://www.madaxeman.com/main/WW2_Update_2021.php) as well as a whole page of the Germans too

(I did cheat a little by using the Vallejo German Track colour, but hopefully no-one will notice....)

I love the idea of a tall ladder in the back one has to climb to observe! 

Quick work.... now back to the Germans!
