Bob Black and I have been dabbling in Blitzkrieg Commander, spurred on by the release of Victrix 12mm WW2 figures. We both bought a box of the company's starter sets, which has a handful of tanks and some infantry. To get the ball rolling I bought some Normandy style houses:
I had a lot of fun painting and basing these, using a variety of paint sample pots from my local DIY store. Some cardboard bases, cardboard walls and flock hedges and the results are quite nice:
I then set about painting the tiny tanks and figures, again a lot of fun. Now, I am embarrassed to say that in the process I found some metal figures from Minifigs that I bought years ago and never got around to using, so I painted these first. I put 10 figures on a base representing either a platoon or company, depending upon the scenario. The tanks are all on single bases. Here are some sample shots:

Great start to your project, the real estate is very impressive, great work on the buildings and gardens etc. I must have a look at the Victrix 12mm WW2 stuff it looks very decent.
ReplyDeleteThanks Donnie. The Victrix stuff is very good. Lots of detail but nice and robust and the kits go together quickly and easily.
