Dystopian Wars - some French

Here are some French ships for Dystopian Wars. These are likely to be next on my clear-out list.  First a group picture with the big stuff not on stands and submarines and tiny flyers at the front.

Then a picture of the airship and the skimming dreadnought on their stands. 

A closer look at the submarines. There are two on the surface and 3 submerged. 

A look at the air skyship.  This comes with a group of 6 tiny flyers. 

The flyers at the left are for the skyship, the group of nine on the right go with the dreadnought.

And the skimming dreadnought itself.



More later.

British Napoleonics finished - yea !

I got the British artillery finished. Here are some pictures.







It's been a long road to get the whole army done, but that's it finished.  I've done 11 infantry battalions of 28 figures, 6 cavalry regiments of 12, a batch of generals and now, the two artillery batteries. There is a sense of achievement in getting this far. We just have to see them on the table.

More later.

Napoleonic and Bolt Action British done

I got some British finished. The Napoleonic chaps took a bit of time because of other tasks but it's good to see them done. 

First the Bolt Action vehicles. I redid the bren carrier with army green and it came out OK.



Then a later picture after the bren carrier and Sherman have been given a wash of soft tone. Now they're looking a bit more like what I want. I just have to finish the tracks and do some light weathering. 

The Napoleonic figures are done. Here's a picture of me part way through the basing. The undercoat of khaki has been done and a first drybrush of sand applied to half the bases.

The final top drybrush of cream has been applied and then later the flock.   

And finally the flags.  It's good to reach this point as that's now 11 battalions of infantry I've done. 



Now I'll take at look at the pile of stuff that's waiting in the wings - Napoleonic British artillery, Bolt Action infantry, Lion Rampant stuff, Dystopian Wars stuff and all the horse and musket figures. Just like every other gamer I reckon.
