War Times Journal 1/3000 Russo Japanese War Ships

I've wanted to paint some of these ships by War Times Journal for years. I finally bought just a few Japanese and Russian ships to paint up. These are really beautiful models. I did the insane thing and added masts which really finishes them off nicely but it took alot of time. The masts are really fragile and would probably not hold up well under gaming, but sadly I rarely actually game these days so they should be fine! Very highly recommended!

In line from left to right, BBs Mikasa, Shikishima, Fuji and Armored Cruiser Yakumo.

Pendraken 10mm Masai

I painted these 10mm Masai warriors for the 2013 Pendraken Painting Contest.

Khurasan 15mm Felids

 

I just sold these fellows on e bay but before they go I wanted to share how nicely they painted up. The detail is fantastic. Khurasan does some wonderful work in 15mm. Check them out at http://khurasanminiatures.tripod.com/

Valkeeri Leader says...

Here is my first finished squad of Valkeeri for Retro Raygun These are probably the most beautiful female sculpts I have ever painted. Hydra Miniatures sale is still on so rush over and get some!

Some Hydra Miniatures offerings

I just finished my Zenithian fleet for War Rocket, and a test figure for my Valkeeri troopers for Retro Raygun. The closeup of the Zenithian class 1 rocket is an attempt to show the paint better. After looking around for a nice metallic green I settled on Testors Mystic Emerald Lacquer spray. It's a bit hard to work with as it likes to repell paint and ink but shooting a thin glosscote onto the models after they were base coated improved adhesion of subsequent paints. Now I finally have enemies finished for my Valkeeri fleet to fight!

 Enjoy.

A few shots to illustrate relative scale of the 28mm Retro Raygun figures with class 4 War Rocket minis.

Just wanted to share a few quick photos of my first few 6mm Baccus Seven Years War units. Im planning to make a home brew ruleset crunching elements of BAR and Warfare in the Age of Reason together. Bases are 5 inches long and give a great linear warfare look. There are 40 infantry and 15 cavalry to a base. My Austrians
