Latest Bits

Well I've had a quiet few weeks with the nice weather but I'm getting back into it!

First off here's a couple of conversions of Foundry Home Guard.
I cut a shooting rifleman & the kneeling guy that comes with the telephone box in half & swapped the bodies round added a bit of GS & glued a scope on the kneeling bloke to create a Sniper & a Guradsman Holding open the Phonebox Door

I also made a scenic base fom plasticard for the sniper.

Next up is a couple of Vickers Light Tanks.

These are from Company B, but picked up a couple of extra turrets from Warlord Games & magnatised them, so that I could hve either HMG armed or Auto Cannon armed tanks

They are painted with Vallejo Reflective Green & have an Earth colour drybrush & wash in certain points, next is the pigments.

Finally I've got round to taking a picture of the dog that i got at Partizan on the Smith Gun Base

I'm still not sure about the dog though



Smith Gun Cat?

Right after mentioning the footpath area that I wasn't happy with

there was a suggestion of a putting a cat there & I happened to have an old Grenadier miniatures cat, so I though that I would have a go at it.

Well.....here's the result....

I'm really not sure about this.

Whether it's my crap painting,

the actual sculpt or just the colours that I've painted!!

Please let me know your thought Guys.

I know that black cat bases do a post box so I've just been messing about & done this:

Which might work better otherwise Matt gets the prize & a newspaper it is :-)

Smith Gun Finished

Here's the finished Smith Gun & crew on the Base,

The gun looks a bit small to me, but as I've never seen one in the flesh, I'm not too sure.

Anyway here's the Pictures:

I'm undecided whether it needs something added to the corner of the 

footpath as it seems a bit bare.



Smith Gun Base

Just finished making a base for The Stronghold Miniatures Smith Gun.

As can be seen from the pictures, the wall & footpath is made from plasticard & 80 grit sandpaper to represent the road.

I will post more as I get it painted.

Cheers
