good gratious, it's been a long time....

                                                   Been neglecting that blog for far too long.

                                  Here is my project 2021.... a slice of the Anhalter train station 

                                 during the last days of the Battle of Berlin....

I'm back! and i've got a new playground...

took a very long time to sort everything out, clean my former nest, empty the cella and so on.. for now three weeks, i'm back to life...

part of my toys.. piled

 yes, this is an antique fridge!!!!

 after weeks and weeks of cleaning and sorting

room is empty

 

 

table in position 250x200 cms...

gluing the table...

then.. sanding the table

 

the painting station arrives

 

together with shelves

 

 

 

the table ready for the first game....

 get ready, cause i already played two games using Battlegroup on this and it is far from over... stay posted.  AAR to follow

 

some FIBUA sequences 20mm

some piccies from a Battlegroup battle

fought in a city of east germany early 1945

germans dug in behind some antitank obstacles.

can you spot the sniper?

Panzerfaust team waiting for their prey

the Königtiger moving toward the front line...

securing the neighbourhood

oups! it's been quite a while... bit dusty in here..

To be honest, i've een rather busy on a project in ... 15mm called Kampfgruppe Muhlenkamp.

simple.. recreate the kampfgruppe as it was in summer of 44 in 15mm to sit an excellent french rules system called Blitzkrieg third edition...

lots of infantry units.. support elements, vehicles and tanks.. plenty tanks.. it is a joyfull task.. Time to grab the camera, wait for the sun, and i'll post some pictures... promised.

see you soon

finished with the cemetary

thought i never posted the "finished" one

great casting models made by Loïc Neveu from France

AK fighters reaching the front line

Part of a mega game we had last week-end,  in a rather large FIBUA..

will add piccies of the germans and the table a bit later...

thanks for looking

cemetery

wanted a city cemetery to match

found these outstanding products from Loïc Neveu - not really 20mm, but soooo cute..

Will be adding sidewalks around the walls, trees and "hasty digged graves" in order to give life to it.. 

More to follow soon...

finished that street element....

One rather damaged building

and a second one - shopping mall -not yet destroyed, but soon to be...

Shops - warsaw - 08.1944

Another building underways....

that section is mostly intact... except one very small part of it...

 

the white part is the rubbled one.. rubbles are to be added.. together with floors parts etc..

 

View from the top.. five different  "sections" each three removable floors..

Need to add wall papers furnitures, side walk and obviously paint the facade..and add a roof

facade elemets from artitec...

more to follow..

Rattenkrieg - 20mm

realizing the AK was using the sewer network to send ammunition and information from one battlefel sector to another one, the german command ordered an operation called "rat sweeping" due to close one of these links..

the battlefield

german vannguard elements ... at a corner heard a noise.. stoi!!!

(a lot of them were actually Russians)

 time to report to the Untersharführer...

 RONA element is called in support...

 together with the dreadfull Flamethrower...

 which - watever the rules system used - is very effective in an enclosed area...

 closing the trap, an MG-42 team sets behind a barricade..

 it is fortunately too late, a group of fighters managed to get through the trap, ready for another day of sheer battle...
