Rubicon Tiger I Ausf. E
You can't talk about World War II tanks and not talk about the Tiger, probably the most famous tank of the era.
Bolt Action SdKfz 234/2 Puma
This is the first of an upcoming series of reviews about some recent tank kits. I'll start with the Puma or SdKfz 234/2 Armoured Car from Warlord Games for Bolt Action.
Tanks and Books
A small update, i used the current week to build a few tanks that arrived at the 'bunker. I bought the Alex Drawer Unit from Ikea a few weeks ago, perfect storage for miniatures. I got a drawer on its own just for vehicles. Quite a collection i gathered in the meantime for my american, british and german armies.
Star Wars, Bolt Thrower and Spiel
A big update, date wise, a view back on more than 4 weeks of activity.
I did a bit of house sitting and beside of binge watching a couple of tv series, i did some painting with the Vallejo Black Uniform Set from AK Interactive. Strong PIP.
Tank month
It took a few weeks but my order at Ainsty Castings arrived. I bought a couple of items, some monuments that will be perfect for almost every setting. A raft, that will a nice addendum for the German Marines i painted earlier, and for some Spec-Op Missions (Commandos etc.). The riverboat was a bargain, and is a nice piece of terrain and will be used for boarding and river settings. And the last part ... a tardis. Eventhough i am not a Dr. Who Fan (i think its just weird), but hey a tardis, ... why not?
Organisation of Tanks
I took the time to tinker around the use of my grown motor pool of tanks for Bolt Action and their usage to certain lists. This is now needed, to prepare the right color scheme.
For that, I prepared a division of the miniatures into certain themed lists, as you see below.
Wehrtechnische Studiensammlung Koblenz Pt I
This weekend was the "Long Night of Museums 2013" and i took the camera with me on my trip through the city.
Wehrtechnische Studiensammlung Koblenz Pt III
And the final part, a view along the higher floors of the WTS, where they stored the rifles, radio equipment and heavy military equipment.
Yellow … flakes?
As promised, the next layer of colour on the tanks. Its Vallejo RAL Dunkelgelb as Surface Primer. You could spray it right onto the tank, but i prefer doing it on top of a primer.
