I was gifted some recycling bins at Partizan by Shaun on “the Bunker “ Samurai game. The bins are 28mm and I will add them to my modern skirmish and 2000AD collection I think. They need some graffiti so off to search for some suitable images to print out on decal paper.

Completed my battery of Bavarian Artillery, quite happy with my artillery uniform blue colour. The Front Rank figures are a pleasure to paint and once I got motivated we’re completed in three nights. The guns have been completed for almost two months.
I plan to commence the Victrix infantry for the Analogue painting challenge, I have some metal Front Rank command and light cavalry also to do to complete the division.

One of the side projects I commenced last year was to build a gladiator arena, one thing missing was civilians, I picked up 80 seated figures to paint, this is the first lot!

Completed a little side project this weekend. A very old Heller kit. I plan to use this in an upcoming scenario. The kit is a little vague on assembly instructions however with a few google searches you will find suitable images to help. I have added two Elhiem pilots but I did need to cut the seat height down by a few mm. I have given it a single coat of clear Matt varnish, I think it may need another. Overall quite happy with the build, now to build a carry case!

Another small project completed. A mix of Airfix and Esci Miniatures. The pilots are a mix of RAF, USAF and Luftwaffe. I could not resist painting some of the ground crews in aircraft carrier jackets.

Completed two panzerkampfwagen AMR35 VMF701 (f) 81mm mortars for my 91st Luftlande division for Normandy. The either served in the 91st or the 11th Panzer, Wikipedia article
A mix of Battlefeild/Blitz and AB crew. I did add numbers which the originals did not have according to the images in the salvage dump in Manche, Normandy. The location of the dump points towards the 91st Division..

A few 20mm ww2 terrain pieces, first up a fettlers railway shed, entrenchment, hay stack and some French fuel drums for a supply dump.
On the build table are a few items first up a 1/72 Heller areospatiale Alouette III. I am undecided if it will join my French Armee or airforce elements.

While we were in England I finally visited Sutton Hoo, what a great site, the reproduction pieces were magnificent and was shocked to find out about the horseman and the queen burials I had no idea they were also undisturbed burials also. Seems there are more mounds along the river with a further two being investigated this year bringing the total to 22.
We had a great time recommended anyone visiting the Uk should visit leave at least two hours to fully visit the site, house and museum.
