@Estoc   Realize this is a 30 day old question but if it's still a relevant: Bolt Action is far and away the most popular 28mm WW2 game/rules set.  It is miniatures agnostic.  Th...

@S. Oatley  Those look good already!  The "stone gray" pants in particular are well done.  Like the highlights.

@Emperor's Will  Hi, there's a long running thread about a similar idea here: https://wargamesatlantic.com/community/xenforum/topic/44480/kitbashing-kits-and-character-creation-kit Maybe yo...

@BS Kitbasher  one more angle 

Here is what it looks like stuffed with hobbit head.  

@S. Oatley  I'll check out Tabletop CP - Thanks! Sam Bellamy posted some outstanding 1/56 T34 vs 1/48 T34 vs plastic Infantry pictures here: https://wargamesatlantic.com/community/xenforum/...

@Grumpy Gnome  I don't know what rules set you use, but I have and enjoyed the "Germany Strikes" supplement for Bolt Action.  It covers all the early war campaigns in Europe. I'm ...

@Grumpy Gnome  Awesome Brother.   They could face off in the Battle of France. I believe Matildas did some real damage to the 7th Panzer Division which was widely equipped with 38...

@JTam Thanks! Female head is from Raumjager set @Estoc @Grumpy Gnome @Vitor Soares @Hudson Adams @BS Kitbasher @Michael McEwan @Yronimos Whateley @Ben S Thank you! 😀 @Benjamin Hayward Thanks! Mec...

Wild card: Russian troops equipped by the French in the Balkans and France.  (This seems a little esoteric even for WGA).      Or maybe the double "bed roll" is in fact a h...

The best match for the rifle pouches I can find is the Japanese:

@Christopher Tyrer  Hmmmh. It's possible. Key identifying features on the running figure.   1. Putees.  (Although that's 90% the personnel in WW1.) 2. Double rifle pouches w...

Whereas the P38(t) deck plate looks much smaller.

I am not sure what scale the Cromwell is, I got it used on eBay, but the footprint looks similar considering the deck plate next to the Matilda.

@JTam  A pair of early war tanks, a P38(t) and a Matilda. Still not sure exactly how I will use them at this stage but both will mark fine display pieces even if I do not manage to fit them in...

There are definitely pros and cons to each. I voted for 1/56 out of sheer self interest but I suppose that's what we're all doing!  Clearly 1/56 tanks aren't 'to scale' and I can underst...

I'm having a bit of a fantasy "Feudal Japan" moment right now using Daisho and Ronin along with some mash-up hoembrew rules and the Skeletons make and ideal wave unit... I know skeletons aren't the...

Morning all! Another returnee to models and games after many years abscence... funny how age and serious illness (now fully recovered!) can bring you back to things that you love but had forgotten!...

I know where you're coming from re inf vs veh at 1/56, however I would say there is a huge difference in 1/48, you then need to think about the rest of your scenery too. The example you've given is...

Hi, WG "blitzkrieg" germans box are a good fit, plastic and fit for purpose, buy the early war pioneers, and for a few £ more, you get an extra figure (metal) and all their extra kit, flameth...

@JTam  WW1 Serbs..? I do hope so!

@JTam Appreciated! 😎🤙

@JTam   The 1/56 Rubicon M4A3 Sherman kit that you showed is their first release of that kit. They have since retired it, and replaced it with a kit that has more than two sprues. I don't se...

@Grumpy Gnome  What did you get?

@William Ings I am going to always vote for male and female civilian partisans kits with arm bits for civilian poses over camp followers (which started out as a COMPLETE JOKE AND FRANKLY SHOULD ST...

Doing research for my switch over from 1/56 to 1/48 I would say 1/48 still lacks availability of a lot of vehicles.  I am hoping the 1/48 kits I do get are not too delicate. The first couple ...

Here's an illustration of the difference between display models and gaming models. Here are some sprues from a Rubicon (gaming model) Sherman: It looks like the suspension is 8 parts. Contra...

Let's look at it another way. This is a small sample size but right now 64.7% of the polled prefer 1/48.  Let's be on the safe side and say 50% of gamers prefer 1/48th and 50% prefer 1/56. G...

@Ben Saunders Really, but they are probably going to be in Northstar's heroic scale and will likely match the male barbarian set they already do when it comes costumes/uniforms/cloths (ie, ice age...

Tamiya has a limited selection of 1/48 armor kits.  (Nothing like number and variety of their 1/35th armor kits though).  Hobby Boss makes a few types.  There's some boutique kits av...

Great pictures.  Thanks for taking the time to put this together.  It looks like all the major historical manufacturers are represented and the sculpting of WGA's Irish is as good as any...

Between those two options, I am going to have to hard vote 1/56 because the WW2 Italian and French vehicles WA might do, should match up with the ones done by Warlord and Rubicon so WA is not remak...

@Estoc Well I was under the impression that 0200 was a smaller scale game, I was right but its smaller in over all play area not models. so the kits should match standard 28mm

@JTam 1/48 is already well covered by companies like Tamiya. Also For table top perpouses doing 1/56 is prefered cause its the standard across all games. if WGA does 1/48 not only would they be co...

Hi All, here are some comparison shots with labels on where they are from You can see a few more comparison shots here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7C6NPO3pDpE  

The wolves/wargs will make good gang leaders in the dog pack street gang game Wargames atlantic is developing. We have the Irish Wolfhound faction and soon will have the spanish Mastiff gang. If th...

I think I agree completely - the hybrid kits are a strong point, and with a significant number of popular items in last year's big survey being civilians, partisans, and e.g. medieval monks/cultist...

If that guy on the right isn't a giant warg, maybe he ought to be promoted to wargdom.  I have a feeling Wargames Atlantic's goblins are gonna fit in nicely with that guy!  

@Brian Van De Walker One of those illustrations is an Andrewsarchus, the largest hooved predator that ever existed. I'd love to see some andrewsarchus in plastic as well.

I was thinking about Fantasy and Sci-Fi hero boxes. A few sprues of basic bodies, different arms, heads, weapons, etc. The sprues could be set up like Goblin Warband with different torsos and leg...

Just realized WGA's WW1 German and French kits are more suitable for 1916 onwards.   Back to the drawing board on speculation.   

Sneak Peak 28 JAN 22. The wolf (werewolf?) is pretty exciting. The ammo pouches on the running figure look vaguely Japanese.  But I can't place the double "bed roll."  Anyone more knowl...

Soviet early tanks - BT5, BT7 And early armored cars - BA 10, BA 20. To be honest, a little big for this request, but not many currently in production, and used by a ton of people from Russia to...

Maybe this suggestion would work? I know that a 3D printing company, Arctic Skunk, make 28mm compatible vehicles in 1/53 scale. That is roughly in between the two scales. It would be a compromise,a...

@Grumpy Gnome  It's a mini M4 that vomits out of gliders.  What's not to like! Kinda leads to the Tetrarch as well.  Same concept but slightly more widely used. (In British ...

Woot! 

@William Redford you should be happy then! 😀

I actually logged in through IE to be able to copy and paste links... as I cant paste in Chrome... but my post in IE didnt save... and I didnt feel like doing all that over again..

@Hudson Adams  Well... I can get 100 x gw style 25mm round bases on Amazon for $10. And i can get 30 frostgrave style gray bases on Ebay for $5. Brigade games sells the Green Frostgrave style...
