The lads had a bash in the Bocage last night and I was lucky enough to have command of the German left flank. My line was pierced but the reserves are well placed, if I can get my forward elements to with draw in time….

Your tank is on fire!

Very nice looking game!

Is that photoshop fire? If not, it looks so real; how was it made? Maybe steel wool you actually ignited? ;-)

No that flame is a model. Batting with some sort of gel added then painted….not my work, I can't take credit. i just showed up to play…

Nice looking table. I am interested in the flame too. Can you post how it was done?

Maybe an LED light inside it? Nice looking game!

Sorry guys I don't know how that was done. No LED just orange paint and "batting" that stuff used to stuff pillows….

Could we dragoon you into prevailing upon the artist? Tell him it is an opportunity to become famous (at TMP) for a brilliant piece of game effect, IMO… thumbs up

EDIT –

Maybe an LED light inside it?

There's an interesting thought.

It is indeed a nice flame effect. Good combination of flame on the hull and smoke.

Wonderful terrain. Everything matches and great details!! Wish there were a few more detailed pictures!
