76mm Shermans

Greetings troops,

     I realized while at Historicon this weekend that I did not post those finished 76mm Shermans I have been posting WIPS for lately.  These are my best armored vehicles to date.  I feel I have been developing what I like to see on my armor components and have a nice method ... finally.  So without further delay ... here they are !

Black primer first, Olive Green second, Dark Ink the whole thing ...

Next I dry-brushed the treads with gun metal silver.  I like the look better ...

Then tanks and wheels were dry-brushed with Green Grey ...

The platoon leader has the Commander out of the hatch as well as the Star on the rear deck ...

I paint the stowage and such in primary colors, dark ink them and then highlight with primary color again

The "Old Man" riding high and proud ...
Keep the Paint flowing and the Dice rolling !!!

US 81mm Mortar Platoon - FOW

Greetings Troops,

Today's posting is of my 81mm US Mortars.  It consist of three squads (2 mortars a piece) and the platoon leader.  These were completed during the winter and were not able to be matte'd yet. Once matte'd in warmer weather I will place the grass and bushes.

Nothing too fancy but I hope you enjoy.

US Engineers Platoon - FOW

Greetings troops,

The following pictures are of the US Engineers Platoon I completed last year.  The teams without grass are not matte'd due to the winter time and it being cold.  Once spring comes I will coat them and add the grass.

The unit includes the platoon leader, 2 squads of engineers (2 stands per squad), 1 squad of HMGs (2 stands).  The unit also has the reserve engineer stands you can swap out the HMG for (2 stands) and 3 bazookas.

This platoon is a support option for both my MW and LW US armies.  I will be including a 2 1/2 truck for supplies as well ...








Enjoy, and Keep the Paint flowing and the Dice rolling ...
