Command Post

Here is my scratch built command post in 28mm. I took inspiration from the Baueda command post and built it by using DAS putty for the sandbags and balsa wood for the wooden parts.

The whole command post is internally large enough to accommodate 4-5 figures or a single large 50-60mm base for an MMG or a light AT gun.


In the following you find some details on the construction of the command post, and some comments on things i would not redo in the same way... I hope you like it  (as my germans do) !












Lizardmen for sale



for sale on ebay my lizardmen army made up of 24 saurus warriors, 30 skinks, 6 saurus on cold ones, 6 Kroxigors, 6 chamaleon skinks, 2 terradons, 1 salamander, various heroes... painted to very good standard and some to showcase standard. Update jan 17: I was able to sell all the pack to a lucky triplet of buyers from France Spain and Italy. I hope they will use them since I painted and never played with them.

Objectives: something worth fighting for !

I had really good time designing three objectives for our new table! They are built from the 1/48 Tamiya jerry cans set. two of them are made up of german equipment and one of US.


I based them on 40mm round mdf bases I got from minibits (an erroneous order so I found a way to use these otherwise too small bases.) Hope you like them and will be inspiring... I plan to do more of them in the future with spare parts and unused soldiers.

New bases from minibits

Inspired by the article on Blotaction.net I decided to rebase my teams. I found that single figures for teams are not so nice since I tend to mix them with other platoons. I then decided the following basing:
2 men teams on 50mm round bases
3 men teams on 60mm round bases

In addition I wanted to have some removable bases on the team ones so as to remove casualties. Hence, I contacted my favourite (and sole) bases provider (minibits) if he could provide me pre-cut bases: They did ! Here is a picture of the 60mm base with 2*25mm holes suited for mortar and MMG teams.

Here is the base with the holes bottom mad with magnetic material. note the small magnet placed in the wood part of the base so one can attach additional pieces on top of it (the piece is on around base under which I sticked some other magnetic sheet. I took the round magnet from a Geomac piece (an old toy of my kids they no longer use)

My BA US army (almost) complete !

Hi guys,

I have (almost) finished my US army and very proud to show it in all its splendor !

It consists of two ranger squads and two normal infantry squads supported by a bunch of MMGs, mortars, bazooka, flamers and snipers !

I am also very happy about the final basing i obtained by using mdf pre cut bases. I will better illustrate that in a later post...
comments welcome !
