Congo Militia

 

 Congo Militia 

Completed a few Congo plastic militia from Caesar Miniatures. A simple paint job, base colors, wash and one highlight. Quite happy with them, I plan on adding some more metal ones so I can have a decent sized battalion of militia for Force on Force.

Cheers

Book Review - Zimmerit the ultimate modeling guide.

 

 Zimmerit the ultimate modeling guide. 

So still diving down the modeling project if 17th SS vehicles in Pays de Loire and Normandy in June to August 1944. With that in mind I picked up the latest publication of Ammo paints, the tools and zimmerit paste. 

The books is an absolute cracker with the most comprehensive covering of the various patterns used on German vehicles I have ever seen. Each pattern is covered then a guide of how to achieve it with the tools and paste. Color me impressed, now to trial the paste myself in the coming weeks on some StuGs and panzer IVs. 

I will let you know how it performs 

Cheers

 Chevau leger lancier WIP

Finally after a very busy 6 months I will get a few weeks to complete some projects on my desk. First two are cavalry projects for my French Napoleonic army. The first project will my last Lancer regiment for 1812-15. I am planing the 8th lanciers using Warlord figures. Commenced the horses this week. Should be done by the weekend hopefully.
