I got a fair number of models painted last week and almost all of the remaining spectre figures have turned up. This means, barring any sudden cool releases in January, we have a straight shot to the challenge’s deadline at the end of January. I’ve already go some models for my post challenge project but…

Not much painting this week – too busy building airfix kits and working. However, the new Spectre models turned up. Hopefully next week will be better for painting. Painted, varnished and based – 165: 38 Empress – Modern British Infantry 14 Spectre – UKSF (of various types) 6 Spectre – Task Force Operators (painted as SAS) +…

As predicted last week was very quiet with only a few bits of progress. I did manage to get the prone sniper based and ready to paint (thanks to the arrival of some cavalry bases) and the Evil Bear Wargames Panther turned up. I also got some Humbrol tan spray to make the job. Based…

After last week, I’ve slowed down a little bit in terms of painting. However, I have managed to add some more to pile thanks to Spectre’s upcoming releases. They had already announced vehicles in the past with their kickstarter exclusive SUV and their Technical project. However, we now see the first two releases, a SUV and…

First up is the last 5 insurgents. Overall I’m quite happy with these guys – they look pretty sharp when placed…

So this week was a combination of buying more stuff and getting a ton more guys finished off to make up for the slow down of last week. First up new stuff. I have, for a while, been looking at doing some wargaming in the South Atlantic. Something about the pictures of guys yomping through…

Managed to get two games of Skirmish Sangin in and wrote an AAR of one over on the Skirmish Sangin forum at https://www.hntdaab.co.uk/blog/2015/07/27/aar-street-fight/. Apart from that, no other changes. The list stands as it did in update 6. This weekend should see some activity.

So the Russians turned up. Four operators in modern gear with AKs (both full length and carbine), four low profile agents in civvies and one female agent (with a certain haircut that should be familiar to fans of a certain Captain America film) in a leather jacket. Overall, I’m a big fan of them. The…
