Battle for the Reichstag

Always wanted to play on that for "real"..

the Buildings are made of carboard

We played Iron Ivan Game Race for the Reichstag

bloody and damn fun..

soviet forces were torned to pieces by the german defenders.

this game was played last September.. Next one will be the Battle for the Reich's chancellerie..

Escape from the Bunker

Very bad quality piccies sorry.. If the sun reappears one of these days, i'll try to do better...

CP Model figures and yes.. the central figure is who you think!

Feldjäger - Berlin - April 1945

The end is approaching..

Bands of "judges" wanders in the ruins of the once 1000 years Reich, looking for deserters, cowards and other easy preys.. the were called Feldjäger..

 

 

destroyed smke markers

Rater efficient, not so hard to make and looking damn good at the end..

the raw material

-coins or token

- pipe cleaners

- tuft or similar brush scenic material

- super glue

- wood glue

- cellulose dope

- dark spray can

- red and yellow acrylic paint..

 twist the pipe cleaner and glue it onto the washer/coin.

 once it is dry, apply A LOT of superglue on te base of you washer and coverwith tuft... press firmly.

 repeat the process along the cleaner, gluing, applying the tugft and pressing strongly

 your superglue jaris now nearly empty.. Your fingers are badly covered with glue and green foliage, but the first part is ... done.. Bear in mind that these 11 columns took me 30 minutes altogether...

 It's time to ou out... with your spray can black.. use a regular can for cars, or whaterver cheap you have in and. spray all over the column..

 Once the paint is dry (that's the longer partof the job), dip the into cellulose dope or wood glue..

let it dry for 24 hrs. Once it's solid dry... drybrush the basein yellow, then in red.. In order to ave a top notch effect, suggest you drybrush the whole coumn in white (very lightly)

AND YOU ARE DONE!!

STILL ALIVE

hello Everyone...

i'm still sound and fit.

theonly thing is the last six month have been entirely devoted to a Battle Group Kursk demo game we played two weeks agon..

painting the figs, part of the vehicles.. making forests, fortified hills, und so weiter has been a very tyring and devoted task.

By the way, if you don't know BGK, i strongly recomand that game, it is fun, quick and damn efficient..

will post an AAR of our game in here later on..

Will be back soon with new buildings for m long time Warsaw project...

see you around
