Decided to start a persistent thread to show off my Modern meanderings.
I still haven't chosen a particular scale I like which put the brakes on progress for awhile. In the end though I've decided to just do whatever appeals, so this will be a multi scale project as I quite like what's on offer for 28, 20 and 6mm. lol
A quick taster: A White Dragon Brit with my first shot at MTP using a tutorial on White Dragons FB page.

That's an awesome pose...! :-*

Lovely paint job.
-
Nice!
-
A great start mate :)
-
That is a bit nice indeed - very good job!
-
Cheers Chaps, the Tutorial was very handy.
Here is the first Fireteam. I've not made my mind up about basing as I have a load of Spectre minis on 2p sized bases so will likely switch to that for continuity.
-
They are very nice. Well painted.
-
Those figs look really good. Nice job!
-
Cheers! They've been fun to paint so far!
Up next is some movement on the 6mm front; Turkish Armoured Unit. The Turks are going to be a major force in the Campaign and background I have planned with their forces spread across the Caucasus and into Northern and East Africa. Hopefully one day we might get some 20mm and 28mm Modern Turkish army.
-
And a quick Russian Unit: the Russians will be fighting on all fronts in this Modern Crisis campaign. With conventional and hybrid wars stretching from Eastern Europe, Caucasus and Siberia and Scandinavia to COIN and proxy battles in the Middle East, Central Asia, Africa and Central America they will be almost everywhere.
Some units will be a bit boring through, straight green is the flavour of the day. lol
-
They look great - very productive!
:)

Spray painting some vehicles today for the 28mm Brits and thought folks would be interested in a comparison shot: White dragon Mastiff, Spectre JLTV and a Empress Tigr.
-
Appreciate the scale comp shot.
I was concerned the mastiff would look far too small next to the other vehicles (being 1/56 instead of 1/50), but I think that may have been misplaced.
Really nice paintwork on everything else.
-
Lovely work all round, but it's the 6mm Turks that really tickle my fancy! That Sabra really is a lovely piece of kit :D
-
Thanks for the scale shot.
The difference in scale is not noticeable (until you realise how big a Mastiff is).
-
Mastiffs are big but the JLTV is also pretty huge. Its made even bigger by the fact you can raise or lower the suspension, so if you see them doing some serious off roading they're huge.
Which blows my mind as I thought modern vehicles were supposed to be getting smaller whenever possible and not bigger! lol
At first I had doubts as to size in relation between a Mastiff and a JLTV models but looking online when comparing them to troopers standing beside they look spot on.
Personally thought because the JLTV is supposed to replace the Humvee it would be a similarish size but apparently not. I look forward to seeing one in the flesh as the British Army is supposed to be buying them.
