Don't know about that. Last session was rough for my dwarf  :sick:


Yeah, the dice were a little stingy with the high rolls for you.

Anyhow, I spent the evening priming a bunch of Romans with a zenithal highlight. Tomorrow I hope to begin the next phase and start assembly line painting them. And then I can move on to Roman cavalry and Italian allies.

These bad boys will be making their dog-fighting debut this weekend at Southern Front. 6 wildcats and 6 zero are ready to fight over the blue-felt skies.



No detailed work done for panel linings, yet. I am just going to gloss varnish for the convention and then experiment with oil washes later on a some point. I experimented with traditional wash on one and it was a mess. Not worth the effort and hassle of cleaning up to make look decent. So they go into the first foray fresh off the factory floor.

Those look really good. What scale are they?

The models are 1/200th scale. These are the planes that come in Warlord Games Blood Red Skies Battle of Midway starter box.

Resin casts which is fine normally but some of my Mitsubishi A6M Zero's had poor definition on the canopy details.
