the MG team is done and waiting for varnish now another 3 figures

38 figures 3 pieces of scenery and  7 models

ive started cleaning up the 2 81mm mortar teams, though assembling the tubes will have to wait till tomorrow or after as my tube of super glue is starting to gel ( and not in a good way) so more has been ordered. slow but steady progress on that.

mortar tubes are together and have been undercoated,  so they and the teams will be on paint start tomorrow now.  im also gluing the Tori gate from earlier this year, its going together smoothly  and well.

welp ive got the figures to do it.....
its more for if i ever get the drive, skill, cash and materials to do the Resistance base attack from " Grey Digital Target"  manga / anime,  where in addition to several human sized figures i need 2 sets of mecha / power suits / slave suits, some buildings and at least one Torii gate ( i looked up how to spell it earlier, as i was certain id spelt it correctly yesterday, seems i missed the second i ).

but thats a project for another time....

That's ok, we're not going anywhere...  :thumbsup:

Check out some of the pintables on Thingiverse, they may have something suitable.

gates together and now has a slather of filler on it to help even out the MDF sheets.
the base coat of buff and the ink wash for depth are on the mortar teams, so happy there, and ive found 5 second hand foundry street violence figs that i got second hand,  ive moved them to the bases i use and am finishing them up  they had already had the faces done and 2 of the 5 had base colour and shading done, so happy there as well.

Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

PSR on the gate has commenced,  it was just a little too layer-ry  after the first set. :rolleyes:

hhhmmm  track rods of the gods???   a bizarre time travel shenanigans and hi jinx series ,  daring  jaunts into and through trapped tombs and ruins, wile ensuring that Tea time is properly observed and that propriety is maintained.   :unsure:  ;D
I like it.  i may have to do further thinking on how i could do it!.
But Scooter if you want to use it for any visuals...  feel free to run off with it   :thumbsup:

second 432 is together  ;D
i have decided on the "tells" on these will be the small tamiya 1:48 packs from the jerrycan set, none on one hull, 1 on a second, and 2 on the third. if i need another idea i may go for something like undiching poles for the next platoon ( if i ever get more)

it seems that the more i do, the more i feel i can do.  rather a virtuous circle.   :thumbsup:
tonight's assembly will hopefully be undercoated tomorrow.
