Desktop Battle!

:ar:  :ar:  :ar:


1946. The joint german-japanese (and italy) army invade the workbench, capturing tons of styrene. The french, americans and british armies wont allow this. Thus they launched an invasion of the workbench. However, great stalin wouldnt allow the allies getting the whole of workbench for themselves. And so the allies (including the soviet union) landed on the workbench with gliders, landing craft and tanks. But the axis where well prepared. They wouldnt give up the captured F-111 on the workbench. They launched a quick counteroffensive (by the Japanese special forces and afrika korps), using their secret weapon...the giant ladybug!!!

hmm choppers over normandy. now that would have made things a little more interesting, seeing that whirlwind has give me an idea.  but it will have to wait till ive cleared a few of the kits on the go at the mo.

Any way, whats with the Bug? shouldnt it be in the ambush scheme?

[Mossie]

Now that's made me smile!  Haven't done that kind of thing since I was a bairn, maybe it's about time I should!!!

Now seeing that Red Arrow in there reminds me that their Hawks are T.1A's & capable of carrying Sidewinders.  I saw pics of one armed up a long while ago & it's reminded me of a real-world (if slightly bizzare) build I wanted to do.  And I've got a 1/48 Hawk in the stash....

Oh-kay...

Definitely seems like exam time, then. And the Axis hav a bit of a thing for bright red, but why not? So did the British Army.

By the way, those die-cast Hawks are bleeding (literally) painful when you jump on them, and catch the tail in the middle of your foot.

Now this looks fun! Hmmm, I'm sure I've got some 1/72 French knights and English Foot soldiers that are itchin' to try out some modern gear

wow, that looks like a fierce battle  
reminds of when i was a kid, we used to build bases in the sandbox and play war with toy soldiers, i always liked to drop corks and empty batteries on the enemy base using fighterjets   .
memories, these days kids use computers to play those games, they never will know the excitement of building bases by hand

Must be a good paintjob then. Probably still hurts though...

[B777LR]

Yup, i used acrylics  and kit decals  and no putty (had never heard of it back then)
