Work In Progress / Re: German AA/AT Guns - 8.8cm FlaK 36/37 TS1 Accessories 180509
« on: May 10, 2018, 03:00:29 pm »Brass would be nice . It shouldn't really be to hard , some AM companies make single 50 cal brass cases and the disintegrating link belt in 1/35 . I'm sure Sherman 75mm and German Flak 88 rounds in 1/56 would be larger than those , hence easier to make . Lots of bits made in photo etch , turned brass and resin for the 1/72 - 1/48 model plane guys as well . The big question is , how many of us would likely buy this stuff to make it worth someones while ( $$$ ) to produce it ?
A good question, I used to glance at the after-party turns and etched stuff in the Beatties in Holborn but did not look at the prices. I feel one tooling coming on.

Now what would be nice would be 1/56 rounds in turned brass (and barrels as well).

Are these usable with the 88 in the Waffentrager?

Saying that, I only have Sealion from version 2.

Only slightly relevant, just seen a T26 in the first episode of series three of the Spanish television series El Ministerio del Tiempo, (The Ministry of Time).

I would expect something similar to the Jeep, a British Infantry crew and gun, and an American infantry crew and gun. Optional Eighth Army, British Airborne and US Airborne(?) crews, preferably in plastic. Wikipedia has it with a six man crew, so multi crew in a pack is unlikely (saying that Bolt Action V1 has a three man crew).

The Japanese and Allied Pacific forces are extremely under represented.
With the exception of Matildas, they are not an area of interest to me (though I am often surprised ^__^).

With the surprisingly good weather for a bank holiday weekend, I base coated the Waffentrager in an attempt at a subdued splinter camouflage using Citadel rattle cans. This was sprayed over an undercoat of Citadel Chaos Black.
The first coat was Citadel Mechanicus Standard Grey. After it was dry, long triangles of masking tape were then laid over the hull. A second coat, this time of Citadel Zandri Dust was then applied. Once that was dry, the masking tape was removed and it was left in the sun for a bit longer. The hull was again masked, covering the grey and additionally parts of the dust colour. A final coat of Citadel Snot Womble Green was sprayed over it.
The running gear is still separate, I hand painted the wheels in solid colour.
The details still need to be painted and the wheels given a second coat after I have painted the tracks.

Almost, the painted one is an Ivana (Bad Squiddo). The painted PSC are in a box somewhere I(and are incorrectly painted in Vallejo Russian Uniform Green not the more accurate Citadel XV88). Edited to make it clearer.
Well at least you have an excuse, the self quote was due to clicking post while having a quote copy open (instead of modify) so I could post on Lead Adventure without having to copy and paste all the image links.
