The Secret War: When Israel fought the Soviet Union

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.

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!

Starting a DDR NVA project.

As the title and photo above show, I am doing a DDR (Deutsche Demokratische Republik) project.

I think I am off to a good start kit wise.

Finally going to use these BTR60s, got 3 of them to build.

Some close Air Support.

And some UnderFire miniatures 28mm German Infantry.

Even made a small one min long video where I interduce the project. Fist video that I have uploaded online.
