Showcase: 15mm Jagdpanther



Believe it or not, this is the first Jagdpanther I've done since my teens, when I did a Revell Jagdpanther in 1/72nd.

Showcase:15mm WW2 Field Fortifications



Here are some nice WW2 field fortifications with a slight urban theme by Baueda Wargames. I painted these straight out of the box (well, I cleaned them). These are all one-piece resin casts. Three large ones (which can be paired up for larger all-around ruins and one smaller one. These are sized to fit Flames of War bases (of course), but they work equally well for single-based 15mm figures. I can't help but think that the sandbags look a tad large, but that's no real issue.

I tried to go for realistic looking mortar between the bricks for the first time using white putty. Painting those actually was rather fast, and was equally fun playing around with weathering, all kindsa of dust looks and so on.

For a very short review: These are good and Baueda got a pretty nice variety on fortifications and such. Well worth checking out.

P.S.: This is the preview of a whole bunch of posts about a WW2 Normandy 1944 project, so stay tuned!

Review: 15mm Panzer IV by Plastic Soldier Company





Heyhey, today I would like to have a look at Plastic Soldier Company's 15mm  Panzer IV set. Five plastic tanks, four different marks to put together, pretty much an essential to anybody playing  WW2 Germans post-1942. Before we dive into this fine piece of cardboard though...

Review: 15mm Panthers by Plastic Soldier Company



Today I'll have a closer look at PSC's 15mm Panther tank kit. I meant to post this one last year, but it got a bit delayed, so bear with me on the '2015's on some of the pictures.

Review: 15mm Josef Stalin (IS-2) tanks by Plastic Soldier Company




Today I will take a look at one of this year's big releases from the Plastic Soldier Company, the heavy IS-2. (IS of course standing for Josef Stalin). As you probably noticed I currently work on a bunch of additional tanks for a client's Flames of War force. Amongst them some of these tanks and I thought I would share my thoughts on this interesting little plastic kit.

Showcase: Western Desert Force Reinforcements



Yesterday I sat down to paint a few reinforcements for my own little early desert British, just so they get some more support options.

Review: 15mm Infantry Tank Mark II a.k.a. 'Matilda II'



Today we are going to take a look at a 15mm model. British, lumbering, slightly old-fashioned, doesn't like anti-air guns: it's the Matilda Mk.II.
