Ainsty buggy

This is the Ainsty six wheel buggy with the Astronaut body.
It is supplied with four heads.

T34/85 continues...

So, I have completed the hand rails on the left side of the tank.

S and S 28mm Jackal

A few years back I bought a model of the British Army Jackal vehicle from S and S.

William Killian for scale. There are a number of white metal parts that need to be added.



At the same time I bought the white metal crew .
They are of a comparable size to the Crooked Dice figure.
The gunner needs some work to get to fit into the seat.

Shadow War - Armageddon: The Fallen - Chaos Marines

This Kill Team was mainly built from the contents of a 2005 Chaos Space Marine box set.
 As you can see, the box was bought very cheap.

The Kill Team - The Fallen comprises one Aspiring Champion (with bolt pistol and assault blade) and four marines with bolt guns.
I still need to check the numbers and who can get grenades.

Shadow War - Armageddon Beastman Kill team part 3

The ten Beastmen are now assembled, though they need green stuff and possibly adding some more pouches and combat blades.


Soviet tanks - Bovington

Two of the Soviet tanks in the Tank Museum Bovington.

A T62.
A T55. This has been cut away for training purposes.

Shadow War - Archeology part one

One of the joys of Shadow War - Armageddon is the ability to use all those odd boxes of figures that you bought but never got round to doing anything with.

So I had a look through the boxes in various locations (and reunited the Tau Pathfinder instructions with the kit) and found these.

Though not actually a Kill Team choice in SWA, the renamed Stormtroopers have various uses for Imperial Guard or Inquisitor kill teams.
I knew I had a box of Pathfinders somewhere, and a couple of weeks ago I did find the instructions, and now they are reunited with the kit.
I bought a number of boxes of the 2005 Chaos Marines cheap at Salute one year (what year I do not know). It is the original multi-part figures (two lots of four Chaos Wombles with a Chaos mutation sprue and a Chaos Marine sprue with a Heavy Bolter and Officer bits). They were originally bought to supply bits for Forge World Chaos Marine conversion packs.
Dark Space Pixies (or in this case Maniac Nightmare Pixie Girls - and boys).
 And finally a box of Skitarii (I have an Enginseer as well).
Started with the Chaos Wombles. The plan is a stripped down squad of five, very basic weapons.
