Modelling, modelling, modelling

Had a slack, but cold, weekend. The boiler packed in so I had to wait in for a fixing person, the eldest heir was in the big city going to a footy match, the Viscountess was in bed after a night shift and the littlest was happy to play on his own and draw.

This gave me the opportunity to do nothing but model. I completed and based (save for the flocking)  a BUF Company. They are Emhar 'Doughboys', very nice models they are too. 


Based ready for theatre.

Advancing through some thick swath.


Must try harder with close up photos!

I undercoated the trench system I made last week, to finish off this week. Started another 'Orange Carton' project. Cleaned up some Airfix WW1 French Infantry (Anglican League), undercoated same. Then build and undercoated a squadron (6) of FT 17's. The plan is to use these as multi-force armour so there'll be a pretty bland colour scheme on them.

And I finally began a credit card HQ complex for the aforementioned trenches.

Part 2

NB: The boiler got fixed in time for the 6 Nations rugger matches, this was a blow as I had no excuse to go to my club. Oh well can't have everything! Anyway it's another three weeks 'til I can have a pint again, so no great hardship.

Look after yourselves, and thanks for popping by.

  2. I'm hoping there will be a bit more on the "credit card HQ complex". Sounds intriguing, but I can't quite see how it works yet!

  5. BUF and Anglican League are a nice contrasting force very VBCW! You did say you were getting started on them, and you have gone off like a whippet! Excellent old Boy top notch, spiffing!
