When I first looked at the pictures, I thought these were 10mm or 15mm. I didn't realize until I when back to the beginning of the October archive that these were 1/285! You did an awesome job on them! |

Another great job Helmet! Very inspiring. Are the infantry slightly oversized next to the vehicles? Is that just a stylistic choice by the designer in micro armour to make the figures look better? Whatever it is your stuff looks awesome. In a few days some 1/300 armor should be arriving in the mail for me. Me and a friend are breaking into smaller scales and your blog has been a great inspiration. |

Hi Gibbon, yes, the infantry is slightly oversized. They look better in my opinion as if they were really to scale, they would look mostly like thin wire
In any case, I am happy to inspire a bit. I'm inspired as well sometimes by other painters :-) and remember: if you have to purchase models from the over- inflated-shipping-cost Company, buy from the gamer friendly retailers. |

Really nice. Still hoping for some explanation of how you terrain the bases. |

Hi Bede, I have answered your question in the previous post: hello Bede,there is nothing extra-ordinary really. I just glue dirt flock on the bases with dark brown colored PVA, paint dark spots, add grass flock and stones for the park. Paint and dry brush the stones. I wanted a brownish look for the stone, therefore I covered them with GW' Sepia ink. Add here and there silflor flowers or bushes, and that's it.
I hope it helps. Helmet |
