A thread on making wooden fences that works for 15mm (in 28mm you don’t even need to cut them in half). I start with normal coffee stirrers - I buy mine in bulk. Cut them in half lengthwise with a Sharp hobby knife on a cutting mat. 1/

For #FinishedFriday here's another trio of WW1 German Sturmtruppen. Still enjoying these Great War Miniatures, lots of character. Started thinking about opposition and might go east with Empress' line of Tsarist russians by @hicksy.bsky.social

Pleased I’m rattling along with the SCW project. Last full section of militia. Just the HQ squad & then a full section of Assault Guards for the Republicans to do next. Away next week so progress will slow down but hopefully I’ll get this & the 3rd section based up before I go!

I have two bottles of Vallejo 79886 - Green Grey. The one on the right was purchased maybe a decade ago while I picked up the one of the left last week. The color formula has changed drastically over time.

The AK Interactive Ultra-Matte varnish is very, very good. Runs through the airbrush like a dream.

More 28mm RCW/ Back of Beyond models completed. Revolutionary sailors, various characters and a few WWII German Sea Wolves skulking about. Mostly Brigade Games models with a few Artizan Designs mixed in.
