Wild West

Finally got most of the rest of my western minis painted up. A few stragglers left to do

Most of these are wargames foundry. One in the middle there is a badger games though. Picked him up at Adepticon 2018 

 Some from Reaper, Deadmans hand, Wargames foundry and Knuckleduster 

 Here are just some townsfolk. Was going for a Bright and look at me color scheme for the snake oil sales men

As I mentioned before there are models from Wargames foundry, Knuckleduster, Reaper, and Badger games. Enjoyed painting all these ones. Based the townsfolk on square bases to make it easier to ID when playing a game. Picked this up from playing over at the Barons.

Rule set I typically would use for this would be Fistful of Lead by Wiley games. Quick to learn and teach and fun every time.

Blood Bowl Refs

Some Forge world Blood bowl refs

 Had these guys for a while now. So finally got them painted up for the Analogue Hobbies Challenge this year.

These were the first forge world models I have ever messed with. For me they were simple to clean and glue together. This is not the norm from what I have seen with Forge world and heard.

 One of these days I'll start painting eyeballs.

Enjoyed painting these guys. Not sure if they will get used much on the field though for any games.

Guinea Pigs for Christmas

Another Christmas has come and gone and on to a new year has started! For the first entry to this years Analogue Challenge I painted these up. I had bought them for her a couple years ago as she wanted to start painting as well. 

She never did paint them in fact pretty sure she forgot about them. So I primed them up and painted them for a Christmas present for her this past year.

The pumpkins and greens are from a kit I bought at hobby lobby. I repainted the pumpkins and added some highlights. 

The wife ended up loving it and has it on her desk at work now.

Germans

Small German command set for Flames of War/15mm

First time attempting a camo pattern by hand on 15mm vehicles. I tried a couple years ago with an airbrush on some German tanks. Turned out decent but I had used an ink over them and ended up repainting them.

 I think it came out pretty decent for first attempt. If anything I think I need to not make as big of lines with the camo paint. Maybe flare them as well a bit more.

Debated on painting the guys to put in the back of these transports. Finally decided not to. Mainly cause I already have 4 German transports with the guys in them so figured it would be easy to use these with no guys to pick out the difference between transports and just "gun" trucks.

Not to much with the Germans. They were one of the first armies I painted when I got into 15mm WW2. so in order to keep them all looking the same I didn't do much to them. Debated this for a while. Finally realized I'm to OCD to have some of an army be different looking so kept it the same paint scheme back when I was first painting 15mm. If I do some Africa or winter troops then I'll change it up.

USA Artillery

Here are some 105mm Artillary. Have a decent amount of USA 15mm put together. However finally got some artillery now to add

 All lined up

Side shot of them. All of them had the same figures so tried to switch it up on how they were placed on the base.

 Not to much to do with the guns. Put some highlights on them and painted some wood logs on the sides.

Now to get to shelling the enemy!

Bard

Quick paint up of a Bard Mini

Had this Bard in my random minis bin for a while now. Could have done more with this base. Was really just trying to get him painted and off the desk though.

Not quite sure if I want to do more with the base or not. Kept it simple for now. Was able to paint him up pretty quick. Amazing how quick I can paint a mini when its the only one I'm painting. Rather than a group of them.

Soviet Infantry

Now onto the Soviets

 First time Painting Soviets for WW2. I painted some of the Team Yankee Soviets already. Not to much different with the uniforms from what I could tell. Could be totally off 

 Also first time using a Vallejo Texture for the Base. Took a bit more work like how it turned out though.

Nothing to crazy on these 15mm. Mainly only uniform and webbing have highlights on them. Rest was just a base color. 

 The rest of them all lined up

 A close up on the command units

Think I'm covered on the Soviet infantry. Just need some Artillery and ready to hit the field
