Title: 02Hundred Hours project completed. Both expansions and the core set painted
Post by: Olofeus on September 04, 2022, 03:11:39 PM
I Painted these lovely miniatures during this week. They had splendid poses and took paint really well. A joy to paint.

Beautifully panted but I must say the models seem to be fairly pedestrian bits of sculpting. Those German helmets are particularly poor and the chap holding that Bren is in for a painful surprise when he pulls the trigger.

These miniatures do have a slight Hollywood feel in them, but I like them a lot. So here's four more.

The rules have that feel too...which I really like.

Those look great and the German getting dressed is fantastic.

Thanks again. Here are the last four SAS troopers and a group photo of them. Now the complete 02hundred hours starter set is painted so it is time to try some gaming  :D

You've done a great job with these.

Have you seen that Wargames Atlantic are running a painting competition?  £250 worth of minis for the winner.

I had no clue about the competition. Thanks for the heads up!

First two games played. I'm starting to get familiar with the rules. The game flows quite nicely. I really like it. Here is a few pics from tonights game. We played at a local friendly gaming store and the mission was Butcher and Bolt. The SAS had a partial victory.

All quiet. The flaming wreckage is a bit suspicious though.

A long story short: All was quiet and well. The sentries were doing their usual stuff: chatting, smoking and trying not to see anything disturbing. Then the fuel truck blew up.  ;D

I would think that would get the guards' attention...perhaps an errant cigarette caused the fuel truck to go up.  Or it has help from the SAS... :D

They are looking really good, characteristic sculpts and the painting brings it out really well.

Thanks for your kind words gents.

Here is a picture of the transport solution for the miniatures. The new Wargames Atlantic 's lipped bases with holes for magnets are simply fantastic.
