More UltraModern Rump DDR Volksarmee.
A few more of my modern Rump state DDR NVA. The project will have to be put on hold. For a order from TAG and Shapeways to finish these guys up.
I guess I'll just have to get back to working on my regular 1980s platoon of NVA.

Some Fictional Ultra Modern East German Volksarmee 28mm
My Idea to use some M56 helmets to make a modern East German Rump state is coming along. /figs are Empress Modern Russian Federation with a universal head set Fast helmet cut with cut down sides to fit the M56 helmet.
And a Underfire miniatures 1970/80s NVA. Both are 28mm
I am still working on my original East German NVA platoon is coming along. But I been side tracked the past few weeks with family coming from out of town and a camping trip with the wife.
And this is a link to where I got them from.

Finnish army Propaganda films.
I found a whole mess of entertaining Finnish military Propaganda films. Hollywood could take some notes about hwo to do a war movie from them. They are not in English but, I am sure you can get the jest of it.

Weeknd hobby time
Well didn't get as much done as I would have liked over the last week. But Did get paint on models and did assemble a few things.
As you can see I completed the first of the BTR kits. I am not to enamored with them, I had to cut and scrape many section to make them fit. And the instructions are not that well put together. And then there where parts that didn't exist. Like the 2nd MG, rear storage rack or spot light.
But I guess it wasn't to pricy, so you get what you pay for! Ha!
Maybe I will go for more 3D printed sets in the future.
On the up side, I got a new building kit as well. And it looks to size up nicely to my 28mm figs.
I am looking forward to putting this together. Maybe magnetize it.
I was also able to finally put some flesh tone on the my NVA. One step closer to being complete.
On the not hobby front, helped work on my folks new backyard. And as you can see, my pup loved the wet grass.
Video of the pup doing sprints about the yard. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qaxIo6YlgkQ&feature=youtu.be

weeknd DDR work.
I wasn't able to get much hobby work done this weekend. But I am still being more productive hobby wise then I have been in along time so no complaint.
So here is a Warlord Games Wrecked House. I believe it was originally a 1/72 kit from Italeri, but seems to work just fine with 28mm.
Now its time to prime it and put it in line to be painted.

DDR testing paint jobs.
Well for painting I am currently at using Vallejo Green Grey for the uniform with GW Agrex wash for a table top quality look. Also using VA bronze Green for uncovered helmet and web gear. I tried to do the rain pattern lines and it was ether to light to be seen, or just turned into blotches, so applying KISS to it.
These are all test photos, They still need a lot of work and I believe the last 2 were painted up with German Beige instead of Green Grey. Derp!
