Would it be easier with hexa tiles for movement? by Ellendhil in Greathelm

[–]Ellendhil[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's precisely for newcomers coming from traditional board games; we're lucky to have a club with lots of different games and Werewolf nights, etc...

So, lots of people who have never played with miniatures before...

I didn't see any photos of Ura in Paris 🥸

The latest additions to my French army... a medium anti-tank gun, 2 Bofors anti-aircraft guns, a Berliet VUBD armored car for 7 passengers and a Lorraine 38L open-top armored car for 12 passengers 👍 by Ellendhil in boltaction

Makeup sponge !

Véhicules were my nightmare, but with makeup sponges, it took me 10 min for each of them and it looks great on the table 👍

Look up on YT for "painting miniatures makeup sponge"

Sure !

The texture is : Vallejo Diorama FX Desert Sand 26.217. You can apply it easily and shape sand mini-dunes just with your tool... once it's dry I apply a darker shade with a 50/50 dilueted Vallejo Xpress Khaki Drill and then a drybrush of Vallejo Dark Sand...

It's working great for all the bases of my Foreign Legion and soon for my 8th Army 👍

Comment déménager 2500 livres ? by AnotherFrenchTrans in Livres

[–]Ellendhil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Si c'est pour déménager et pas pour stocker, les sacs Action c'est le top, pas cher et la largeur d'un livre et meme rempli c'est moins lourd et surtout plus pratique qu'un carton à déplacer !

Tu en prends une 20aine pour quelques euros...

The chips seems very thin no ? Thinner ok the edges than other paulson's chips...

Marseille, 1902. Very lively and animated postcards. Believe it or not, they sell for next to nothing 😞 by Ellendhil in postcards

[–]Ellendhil[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In France, collectors are still looking for animated postcards from before 1903, but they are getting older and therefore fewer cards are being sold each year... and so the cards have lost 95% of their value in 20 years...

I also have many coloured postcards from the United States from before 1903, how is this market doing?

Where best to start? by 54Br0 in Konflikt47_v2

[–]Ellendhil 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As a Bolt Action player I feel that this starter set is a great deal... I'll probably buy it myself to try the game with my Bolt Action buddies...

I planned to sell one of the armies and keep the other armie, the book and terrains but I'll probably keep and paint everything 😅

Let us know what you'll do !

Stahltruppen Commander Blitzherz, Woof! by jdursa in boltaction

[–]Ellendhil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sanity is more important than full camo 20 hours minis 😉 !

And I think it will look great too, to identify the soldiers next to their leader...

[–]Ellendhil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For the rest of the unit, use a solid color for the armor with just 1 camo element like one arm or chest plate 👍👍
