What's that now, 6 x buildings and 6' of barricades between us.

My poor Milicianos may just about have an outside chance of holding the line ...  ;)

I have put the long weekend to some good use and have been continuing to slap some paint on the figures I picked up at Salute.

I have finished a 75mm gun, a pair of Dinamiteros, a P.O.U.M. standard bearer (as an alternate to my current U.G.T one), five more Milicianos and a team of Civil Guard.

I have had loads of very supportive comments regarding some of the work I have been posting of late and a lot of people have asked how I do my bases.

I have put together an article on my blog on how you get from this:



To this:



Via the steps that I use.





I hope this is of use to some of you.

A slow painting week this past week due to pressures of work, but ten Guardia Civil and some more barricade sections completed.

I've scratch built and painted the fourth building for my Spanish Village. This time a L-shaped dwelling with a fenced storage area.

I have a campaign game with James again this evening so it will hopefully feature in some of the photos of the game.

Can you make something a little larger for my Milicianos to hide behind. A factory for instance ...  :)

Very nice work mate

This week I have put the finishing touches on my first half dozen Falangist blue-shirts for the ongoing Spanish Civil War project.

All lovely figures from the Empress range.

Thanks chaps.

In preparation for this evenings game in our ongoing Spanish Civil War campaign I have built a Spanish Tavern for Durutti and his Anarchist Militia to defend against the onslaught of the Moroccan Regulares.

...another cracking addition. You are building up a nice 'same build' group of house that's adding nicely to your campaign and presentation.

Hopefully Durutti can hold out!

Happy W
