Sergeant's Bunker: March 2019

And Now for Something Completely Different... Space Marines!

Going even further out in a different direction from WWII, I had a small squad of these Space Marines engineers that I've had for many many many etc. years (possibly since the mid 80's? That or 1990). Finally got up my gumption to paint these. After some research on how I wanted to go, I think they turned out pretty decent. A bit more bold and solid in color than most of my painting. Cant wait to get these into something. These are my wife's favorites.

German Zombie Soldiers WWII

Well here's a bit of a drift right... I had bought some Reaper Chronoscope German WWII Zombies unt Reaper Reich of the Dead German Kroid Zombies. I figured these could be used for some weird war scenarios involving hideous experimental soldiers for the allies to encounter. Sometimes fun to have an unexpected twist, ya! I added a bit of Citadel Nurgles Rot for some added gooey gore. They did a nice job of sculpting to show exposed bone, and slouching intestine.

British Commandos WWII Europe

Getting away from the WWII Pacific theater, I have some British Commandos and SAS/Airborne squads. The commando's are done, and nearing completion on the SAS/Airborne squads. They're taking a bit longer due to the camo-smocks they are wearing. The commando's actually might be a little more detailed due to the equipment they have on them... backpacks, and all the other gear that the airborne don't have on them. It will be a nice addition for creating some European theater games. I enjoyed trying to get some enhanced detail for the tartan on the bagpiper's pipes bag, and the map.

Australians for WWII Pacific

So now I have USMC, Chindits, and Japanese... What am I missing... of course Australians!! I did up a squad of Australian Militia, and have a jungle division infantry team, command, MMG team, and Flamethrower, mortar, and sniper teams waiting in the wings to be painted. Below is the Militia squad with commander.

Chindits for WWII Pacific

Ok, so along the same lines, I've been adding to my WWII line for Bolt Action. I did up some Chindits for Jungle Play. Again... I've just bought a good half dozen or more blisters packs full last September at a local con called RECRUITS in Lee's Summit, MO. A couple Warlord dealers with a fairly decent selection and some minor discounts.

Medium and Light Mortar Teams, and Vickers MMG Team

Based so team casualties can be removed. Something new I tried and liked.

AT-Rifle, PIAT, Flamethrower, Radio Teams

Always need some indigenous jungle guides!!

Russians: Updates

Gonna update a bit and do several shorter posts showing some of the new stuff I've finished up. I've continued with my Russian WWII figs for Bolt Action. Most figures are from Warlord Games except the Winter Rifle Squad and the NKVD Squad, who were by Battle Honors. I've still got numerous squads and units in blister packs, bags, and some in the process of being painted. So many... what have I done?
