US Airborne

Finished off the last of the Allied squads form the Open Fire set, the US Airborne troops.  Not too sure about the uniform colour as compared with the box art but I am happy enough with it.  Yet again I followed the Painting Doctor to get me to the end.

Achtung Panzer...err well StugIII at least.

Finished up my 3 little StugIII's from the Open Fire boxset, always had a liking for these little self-propelled guns.  Doing the camouflage is a pain especially as the Germans went with their 3 tone camouflage scheme late war.  Probably explains why they are so popular with modellers!  

Also a sneak peak of whats on the bench next, US troops from the boxset, a woodelf lord and Treebeard from Lord of the Rings.

Flames of War: Open Fire Boxset.

I received the Flames of War starter set for Christmas which gave me a whole load of stuff to paint up.  Its been a while since I did World War Two stuff but having watched a few youtube videos I have been itching to paint up some tanks for a while.

After a few weeks I have finally finished the Sherman Tanks from the box.  These were a pain the arse to put together, luckily I had been forewarned about this by the FoW Facebook group.  There was also a mini disaster with varnishing them that led some to have white streaks on them but luckily another bout of weathering fixed them.

So here are the British tanks from the boxset all ready to take on the hun!  Next up the US airborne.
