And in the sixth week....

of quarantine....

more odds and sods.

 Syrianf infantry in 6mm, the new H&R infantry castings, from their Soviet Range.

 Old H&R BMP-1 repainted and rebased. The camo scheme has been observed in Georgia in 2008.

Super close up.

Something new, the first bits of my new PLA force in 6mm. Type 99 tanks from H&R.

Still odds and sods... I am pushing forward with the Warlord box of Japanese Infantry and also retouching my older TAG Japanese.  18 Warlord guys are done, 12 to go.

Empress desert Italians with the sun hat. Keith gave me a pack of LMG gunners eons ago, time to get them painted and done. Two painted, two to go.

And another week has ended. Life continues...

And in the fifth week...

belated and delayed post... I am collapsing!  Thanks god Easter weekend allowed some rest...

anyway that is what I did last week... a bit of odds and sods...

Finished the Foundry blister of unarmored phalangites, one more Warlord Japanese, some more 6mm Syrians, two ancient ships, more mules/donkeys, a troop of 15mm Crusaders.

And in the fourth week of quarantine...

I am starting to feel the side effects of the situation... pressure, uncertain, and the like... also mail is getting slower, still waiting for my Vae Victis...  but I am still painting if not to avoid going crazy.

So, in the fourth week of quarantine I painted...

Ships, ships, ships.... I am done with the the IJN battleships box from Fujimi. All 12 beasts are painted. It was a pleasure! 

 Yamato, Musashi, Nagato and Mutsu.

The four Kongou class, WW1 battlecruisers upgraded to fast battleships. 

A final group shot!

Last week I hinted about some Sassanian infantry... here they are, 12 in total, from Aventine. I washed each sculpt to avoid the annoying primer flaking, and generally it worked. Funnily enough it was only an issue with the Aventine castings... mysteries... 

Last week I mumbled about lack of oval bases for cavalry, but also that they arrived... (with plenty of other MDF bases from warbases...) so Hetairoi number 3 from victrix, 6 unarmored Pezetairoi from Foundry (okay one of them was a test paint dome some weeks ago...)  and a Peltast I found lying with the Pezetairoi... still from Foundry. Like the Foundry Macedonian sculpted by Steve Saleh quite a lot.

Oh... change of period. Three plastic Japanese infantrymen from Warlord.

Finally some 1/300 HR syrians. Bmp-1 first.

 More BMP-1s and T-55 AMV. The T-55 AMVs are cracking sculpts. But I have to say that even the old BMP-1, repainted to be honest, are well cast and very nice.
