thanks for the response! yeah i used pvc board for my plates. do you glue your buildings on using super glue? i think i read somewhere that a hot glue gun is preferred since it doesn’t shrink when drying but i’m not 100% sure

love your work joe! had a few questions if you wouldn’t mind answering…
1. how did you do the cobblestone texture?
2. how do you prevent warping on the base? i’ve used mdf bases that had severe warping and switched over to plastic, but there’s still a bit of warping
3. how did you make your roads?

second game we played was #battlegroup. soviet forces push into town, thrashing the defending infantry but taking some losses from a flak88 and fausts. german armor reserves come in later to try to stop the bleeding. unfortunately we had to call it a draw due to time, but could’ve gone either way!

chain of command game from yesterday. american rifle pltn supported by a sherman pltn tries to push into a town held by a pgren pltn. the grenadiers take a beating but the 2 panthers and tiger ace supporting them inflict enough armor losses for the americans to break #chainofcommand #28mm #wargaming

been really enjoying the speed at which these 15mm minis get finished. the texture paste is definitely the most tedious and annoying part #wargaming #battlegroup #15mm

random question, but have you ever made a tutorial on taking pics of miniatures? your shots and lighting always come out so nice

attended a local bolt action tournament over the weekend and got voted best painted army. panther definitely didn’t get its points back but it looks cool so that’s okay #wargaming #boltaction #28mm

i don’t see how they are disconnected? it seems pretty clear that ive been playing the germans in my gaming group and as such would be hobbying german minis lately. i would also never judge someone for just having a german army, or any other army for that matter

see, you are making an assumption based on the limited stuff i’ve posted

because they are the last things i worked on. i dont plan on retroactively posting all the stuff ive already finished. very bold of you to just make assumptions about strangers on the internet

your comment came off as accusatory to begin with. for reference i guess i have a weird communist hobby and a capitalist hobby since i have soviet and american armies as well

what’s wrong with using a historical tank to use as scale reference for a historical print? i like the paint job i did on the tiger so im gonna use it

printed out some more parts to shorten my church. the original being so long made it a little awkward to place and play around on the table. #28mm #wargaming #terrain
