T-26's would also be super useful for Finnish troop kits.. they were the main tank the soviets used in the winter war, and finland captured a fair number of them over the course of it. and during t...

T-26's were prominent in the pre-war Soviet-Japanese fighting. I think there were even some surviving for the brief 1945 war. 

Without the specifically Roman parts and maybe other heads, they're usable through to the middle ages.

Amazing work! For the white cloth, I think the issue is the folds have too much contrast and are sort of pooled in the middle. White is tricky... try doing it purely with layering and drybrushing ...

@Grumpy Gnome  It's just the USMC variant of the Army Times.  And just as trash.   If you want some interesting reading Google how dicked up the USMC's Force Plan 2030 plan is...

@Geoff Maybury  Is this the everything Vietnam wargaming thread now?

@JTam I agree. Easy model to find in 1/43. And I think it is a nicely characterful looking car. 

  I would have assumed it was a VW Bug from those pics as well.  Maybe one of the visiting German engineers helped design the backend? I THINK the taxi is a Renault 4CV. https://en.m...

Well, I understand and accept other points of view, my good Fellows. An explanation for Grumpy Gnome : When I invoke a difference of perception between what seems normal in the Anglo-Saxon world a...

Another week, another batch of Raumjagers finished. Only one more to paint and I will have finished my current Raumjagers batches. These 24 miniatures bring the current total for January to 92 pai...

@Andreas Penzkofer These were worth the wait to see, your paint finish is perfect, they look quite realistic. I think you should be proud of your work on them.

This back view although different as many same areas as a VW. I`m glad i didn`t press on with what had been stated as an easy conversion all the Taxis  were this car.

Sadly she`s a 1/35th scale kit butit is the right vehicle. Paytiance is the only thing now to Rubicon do one of there resin master pieces.Till then I`ll leave you with these delightfull gems of a n...

Now I`m begining to see a different taxi here. So more cheaking finds me this. 

Then there was this photo also. 

Note the Taxis in this blown up picture, when  looked at at night a couple of months ago, I thought "AREH an Old VW" particulary when this picture was posted and a guy commented on an easy con...

I posted just before X-mas that Eileen and my self wanted to push on with our "Dinnos" project. That was until we gained a lodger,  some of you may have seen  an elderly female cat as mov...

@Grumpy Gnome Every thing is print, but when are they going to deliver what you order. one month -5 days still counting no way of chasing them.

I think “old saga” is something of a relative term given “The Eternal Champion” was published the same year I was born.... especially compared to the much earlier original t...

I quite like the 38t too. And I quite like the various early WW2 tanks multi-turret tanks. Perhaps in part thanks to Humphrey Bogart (Sahara).

@JTam I have found the fluff to be scattered throughout all the various books, without a single best location for all of it. Each expansion has pushed the timeline along a bit... so This Quar&...

@Lord Marcus If a kit gets 1000 votes, would it be announced?

@Grumpy Gnome  Where have you found the best synopsis of the fluff posted?

@Grumpy Gnome  Concur.  The interwar/early war tanks defiantly have their charm.  I really like the 38t for some reason.   People tend to dismiss the T-26 as obsolete in ...

@Alessio De Carolis  A lot more distinctive than the typical "MP" brassard.

These could pass for a lot of germanic tribes, given that all those ones had pratically the same dress, and the nobles, expecially those who'd served as mercenaries in the Empire, adopted romans'-t...

There was an old saga from M. Moorcock,  "The Eternal Champion", with lot of worlds and characters, these were more anti-heroes than real ones, but could be interesting if some cues are taken ...

Marines! Bring on the Toulmore! 

Sad story indeed, about the AKs this one was probabilly a captured one, surely the hungarian army didn't had yet them. The russians could destroy the insurgents because the world was distracted by...

Beautiful paint job, don't worry for a zombie-like monk, surely there weren't so many pretty faces in Middle Ages! About the white, it depends from the state of the cloth, logically in that ages t...

@Andreas Mayrhofer OMG, I was waiting yrs for such a figures' set, with only few modifications could pass for an "Expanse" like soldier!😱 Imagine also some power armours such as the martians' mari...

@JTam The last photo explain the reason german MPs were nicknamed "Kettenhunde", aka "chained dogs"!😜

@Grumpy Gnome Not against the idea,  strange the "Operators and Insurgents" are so low, I just hope they don`t keep getting delayed.  Really wishing for some modern sets . Crazy when you ...

Can't say I'm a huge fan of this, however I can understand why it's being seen as necessary. 

@Geoff Maybury sorry my friend, late to the party as always, but time is definietly one of the big things I do not have an abundance of so my time on here is limited :(  I have placed an orde...

I thought this might be fun to discuss as well as give WGA and Zombiesmith an idea of what might do well in the future should they dedcide to make new miniatures.

I really like the quirky look of some Interwar and Early WW2 armored vehicles, such as the Soviet T-26.

Cobra at Papago Military Reservation.

Cobra at the Commemorative Air Force Museum, Mesa, AZ.

Was fortunate enough to come across a T-26 displayed in Instanbul, Turkey.  A very historically significant vehicle.  The Soviets fielded over 10,000 T-26s at the start of Barb...

I mean, you can do a lot with Cannon Fodder for that kind of project. I have to finish off mine, done with Iron Core backpacks and the rifles altered a bit. Orange jumpsuits, white helmets and weap...
