Merry Christmas 2016 and let's hope 2017 is a..........

..........good and better year!

Santa sent us a letter this year with two painted figures from other bloggers Chris S and Ian W, many thanks and lovely painting boys!

Internet has been playing up a little again lately but the arguments with the provider keep me slightly amused!



My traditional Christmas picture..........


Will base them up later on..........


I'm afraid the 28mm collection was sold to pay some bills many years ago, they will not appear on eBay but with the others that is the my painted bloggers figure collection!

Look after yourself out there people and try and a have a good one if you can!

Something puzzled me when I opened the box, it smelt of sandbags, wet badger and budgie smugglers?

15mm Modern Team Yankee BM-21 Grad 122mm Multiple Rocket Launch System.....

....from Battlefront!

The BM-21 is a Soviet truck mounted 122mm multiple rocket launcher, the "Grad" stands for hail! A minimum range of 1.6km and a maximum of up to 40km and is the most widely used multiple rocket launch system in the world!

3 resin BM-21 from Battlefront, not too difficult to put together, 2 for the Russians/East Europeans and 1 for my North Koreans! Yet again probably scenery or an objective?





15mm Oddzial Osmy and Khurasan miniatures for a touch of scale..........






A 31 second video showing one of these bad boys in action...............

15mm IDF Israeli Merkava Mark 4 Main Battle Tanks from.....

......Khurasan Miniatures.

Motivation and other factors have meant I didn't enter the Analogue Hobbies Painting Challenge this year, good luck to the brave 100 (except Ray)!

Theses were painted earlier in the year..........

These resin tanks with metal parts are from Khurasan and are very decent casts, very little fuss, no markings for them yet.

There is a 15mm IDF trooper for a little scale help.........



These are actual IDF Merkavas........
