Finally, my first small bag of models arrived from Heroics and Ross so I spent a little bit of time this weekend basing most of it.
Atm it is a mix of BGK and BGO, most will get dual use anyway. With the cost of 6mm, it is not a big issue but it stretches the money a bit.
To help out my opponent I've added a Sherman to my order that has now been suitable altered

Some of the models have been altered, added or replaced barrels with brass wire where needed, and I need to buy me a new wallpaper brush to strip it for antennae.
I know the open area left for a paper tab won't be to anyones taste, but I'll add a coloured marker to the rear base rim as well to denote the various types available in BGO/BGK (With their own Waffenfarbe, as in FW HQ (Yellow)- Inf (White) - Tanks (Pink) - Artillery (Red) - Recce (none, shape)- Engineer (Black)- Logistics (Blue) . And this time, the rest of the rim will be black as I feel this works better with 6mm.
The bases look superb! I am looking forward to see what you do to these, please keep posting, this is excellent.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenYour basing is neat compared to mine. I have a nice 6mm US and German force completed for BKCII. I should get BGN and give it a shot, even though I'm more interested in East Front at the moment.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenNice site btw. I'm addi g you to my Feedly list.
Why not get BGK then and build a new Russian force? No camo on those so painting should be pretty quick. Though I'm torn between adding Yanks to my to-do list, as my opposition is a British player and I want some extras so I can do some demoes with the locals.
VerwijderenThx for the compliment, hope you enjoy the rest as much as you did these.
