DAK Transports are finally finished. I had been holding off sending or posting photos of some of these because I needed time to finish them all, this competes what I need for Adpeticon Bolt Action Tank wars. It all looks good so I am pretty happy.

Paint Problems
Paint Problems, we have all had them. I get them often enough that I thought I might do a post about them. In this case my problems came up while painting the Bolt Action transports.
3mm Israeli Isherman Battalion
It’s been quite the productive week, the last of the models I’ve recently finished is an Israeli Isherman M51 Battalion for Modern Spearhead. One thing I like about the Israelis is that you don’t need to paint huge numbers; I’ve got a huge number of Egyptian T-55s that will take a fair while to finish.
First I’ve got the commander: the rules just have him on the same base as the others. However, I’ve decided to base them very differently on 20mm discs. It makes them nice and distinct, without requiring a heap of work on a little diorama.
28mm Camel Cavalry
Another random project I’ve been working on. These were a Christmas present from my better half. These are 28mm Camel Cavalry for Gripping Beast’s Saga Crescent & Cross. Crescent & Cross takes Saga from the Dark Ages to the Crusades. Given my enjoyment of factions that have a certain self destructive capacity to them, who better than the Mutatawwi’a; the Mutatawwi’a have a mechanic where they can martyr their own figures to gain special abilities.
My progress with these has been pretty slow, but I did start with the biggest miniatures. Who doesn’t love camels?
6mm Sho’ts
I’ve been a bit inattentive here of late; the reason has been a bit of progress on a number of other projects taking up my hobby time. First project completed is the 6mm Israeli tanks that first featured a little while back. I’d been putting off putting on the decals because it was a fiddly P.I.T.A. task, but I liked how they looked. I finally got around to putting them on and I’m really happy with how they look.
First a picture of three of them, the hardest decals are on the turret: these are a Hebrew character and a numeral that are really small.
The Amazing Deadpool
The Amazing Deadpool, was an episode of season 2, the Amazing Spiderman. This Amazing deadpool however is by Knight Models. While Deadpool is from the Marvel Universe, Knight Models first game was for Batman. There may well be some rules coming for Marvel universe characters.
