I know the feeling!

However, as the uniform is simple, I only need worry about helmet covers!  These will be quick compared to SS! (I hope!)

It's more all the other bitty stuff, waterbottles, straps, capes etc that take all the time, you need to be more precise than with camo... but at least it isn't oakleaf I guess!

I'm not sure how I missed this thread but spent last night reading through it and catching up.
Quality work throughout!
I love your conversion work and look forward to seeing how you get on with the WA figures.

Thanks David.   Getting my hands on some would be a start! Lol

I was also looking at a sprue of warlord afrika korps last night….probably great for converting an mg team.

Too busy to start painting minis at the moment…but I did managed to give these Rubicon fences a quick lick of paint last night and add a little detailing.   I have left these off my customary plastic strips as I feel they will stand happily on their own on the table.

Useful….minor obstacle that affords no cover.  You get about five and half feet in the set.

I think it’s a great little kit…..I will probably get hold of their set of picket fencing next.

That should hopefully give me ENOUGH fencing I suspect (read hope)

So, we’ve decided we need more gardens so that will be the focus of terrain building for a bit.  To kick off, a couple of scratched sheds and a modified kit wood store.

We are not all as gifted as yourself my Lord Flatpack with your palatial and frankly amazing gaming barrack house!  I get green eyes every time I come over  :'(

However, I am in the middle (literally) of having a small office/conservatory adding to the house that will also serve as my gaming space.  Will only fit a 6 x 4 board, but it will be better than standing around in my kitchen!

So...are you moving on to skirmish, or 15/15/6mm  ??? ??? ???

If you is, & you want rid of those nasty 28mm figures & scenery,
I could find room for them. I wouldn't even charge you. :D :D :D

Ha ha.  90% of our games are played on 6 x 4!   

I still just about have room in the garden to put up a double table too!

Anyway, with your collection on models, buildings etc…what the hell do you need mine for? Lol
