Another civilian Miniature by Full Metal Miniatures. This time a porter carrying firewood. Painted as usual with GW contrast paints.

Here are all the people living in my Vietnam war era village. I finished the last Full Metal Miniature yesterday.

I wanted to add some things to give the buildings of my Vietnam war village and city a more lived in look. So I started with some pots were Rice or salted fish or firearms? can be stored in.





I used wooden beads for these.

I printed some walls with a short rest of FDM filament I had lying around. Walls like these can be used in between buildings or around parks and along streets. They are not only useful for my city of Hue project. So here they are:

Here is the next building for my Hue city project. Another 3D printed building from WOW buildings. It is from the world in ruins kickstarter set. It is intended for a “Saving Privat Rian” setting, but I think it works for Hue too.

I thought that a small train station for my Hue project would be nice. There is a complete Hue train station in the WOW Vietnam kickstarter but for me it is just too big. So I started with some tracks and a Diesel engine from another WOW kickstarter.

It is, just steadily work on it. I try to get in half an hour of painting/modeling time each day. It helps me relax from a job I have to talk all day long!

The next member of the company command. Armed with a salvaged blooper gun. He is wearing a camouflage cape fashioned from a US parachute.
