15MM Houses Completed and making room

Hi Chaps,

The pizza base houses are finished at last...they hung around my workspace for a few days but mainly this was just to allow for the glue to dry before the quickest of paint jobs. Four 15MM Indian type houses for a pound or less! As a total cheapskate/parent this gives me immense pleasure!

Also I will be putting most of the 28mm Perry MoR on fleabay to make room for another purchase.

I enjoyed painting these little fellows but the very fine detail drove me mad! This year I am determined to actually play some games and paint more Warhammer Empire troops....and some smaller scale figures. It is a big list but a start has been made. Are there any good figures out there compatible with GW Empire figures?

Well I had best be off, son to feed, shopping but best of all when everyone is resting I have some figures to paint!

Keep blogging lads (and lasses) I need your ideas to steal.

New 15mm Plastics

Hi,

I thought that this might be of interest...Black Powder with affordable plastics that will not take two lifetimes to paint!

Any more information would be useful I am sure.

The future is plastic!

Hi All,

its been a steady week painting. Its been so long since I painted 15mm...back in the 90s just a few DBA armies, its so different compared to 28mm. Really in 15mm I feel as though I am painting for effect rather than adding details but it is quick and fairly simple to do. My battalions are for Rapid Fire so one box of plastic soldier company has so far produced three battalions-I am going to give the fourth to a mate as I could never have all these figures on the table at once.

The tanks are not really finished but I may not even bother with the cammo on this company, these are Zvezda, I got 5 from fleabay for around £13 delivered...next week I may get some Russians so my son and I may game away. About 70 Germans left to paint and two tanks-buildings next.

Have a good weekend.

Objective Marker 15mm

Played around last night and created an objective marker in 15mm, its strange because I dont really need one but I got a tram from a car boot (20p) and thought it looked OK for 15mm....its a work in progress really because I have still to finish the paint on the tram.

The US figure is the only 15mm figure I possess and was used just to get an idea for the scale, the idea of objective markers is a good one because I get to use up the rubbish from my parts bin!

Have a good weekend and keep gaming chaps!
