Shed, log store and WC's. |
Out building and those telegraph poles along with the extras. |
I now have to turn my attention to all the lovely vehicles I can get before beefing my infantry squads up to ten men and maybe adding one more. I am going to give my troops the choice of transport vehicles so that means mainly trucks with maybe one halftrack for each, M5 or M3 or SdKfz 251/1, now this sounds easy but the price of these things is frankly expensive. The cheapest truck I could find was £18, I eventually went with two at £21 because along with a couple of other things this got me free postage, £42 for two bog standard trucks!
Nearly all the motorised stuff comes in at these prices, even the tiny jeep is £15 on average. OK you don't have to get all this for Bolt Action but being a wargamer you pretty much will want it to complete your forces. I am looking at up to three jeeps, three trucks/halftracks, an anti-tank gun and tow and a choice of tanks/SP guns or AA vehicles or maybe an SP howitzer or tank killer, and all this for both sides. Four hundred of your English quids at least. This suddenly looks like a long term project, birthdays, Father's days and Christmas' are now all sorted.
On the bright side I have the beginnings of two decent forces already and they can only be improved upon as time passes.
Crumbs, you need to post your rusty roof painting recipe!! That's absolutely spot on.
ReplyDeleteVery decent of you to provide a couple of WC's on the table ;o)
Cheers

No recipe Matt, straight out of the tin, Ammo Mig Rust Tracks and Dark Rust. I was going to experiment but they worked perfectly and they put a little ball bearing in the bottle!
