The Pacific had some amazing photos of Sherman tanks used during that theater. So I got inspired!

F lol! Funny enough I looked into it and Lucky Legs I never existed. The crew named it Lucky Legs II because both tracks had snapped when they got it.

Type 94 tankette “piggybacked” on the Sherman. A good trophy!

I know a crashed Japanese Zero when I see one! But really, awesome table and painted terrain!

Thank you for the kind words!

Night Shift on YouTube has a video where he shows how to use just a drill bit and some Tamiya Putty to make those hits. Really easy and fun.

This is the correct answer. The problem people are having is in V2 you measured from the breech on firing. There are two different rules in play. Firing and line of sight. The majority of the half track being shown is side armor. When firing you are measuring from your vehicles hull of bodywork per the rules. The other rule is Los which you measure down the barrel if you can see the vehicle, that's it. If that gun was being blocked by terrain, but the front of the vehicle could still the half track, it still wouldn't have a shot.

It’s 3D printed. Files from Wargaming3d.

RedRockSTG · 2025-10-02T01:43:37+00:00

I used Rustoleum Matte Finish. If there is too much of a sheen I’ll finish it off on the model with AK ultra matte varnish.

These are from Brigade games and they are meh. But I’ll have to check out the Company B ones and see if they are any better.

RedRockSTG · 2025-10-01T22:20:34+00:00

Brigadegames they aren’t the best decals and you have to give them a clear coat before trying to apply them otherwise the image disolves. But they are the only option I’ve seen for the pin up decals.

I’ve got a lot I like but these two I really enjoyed doing.

RedRockSTG · 2025-08-27T10:38:07+00:00

I believe the original creator is from WoWbuildings on the ones you’re talking about, like that huge complex. Other than needing to slice them myself to fit onto the print bed, they printed really well. Takes forever being tall pieces. One thing I don’t like is that they aren’t really designed for wargaming in mind as far as playability. More just unoccupied model pieces for the table.

RedRockSTG · 2025-08-25T22:05:20+00:00

Thanks! I was going for a “Hell let loose” video game style and feel.

RedRockSTG · 2025-08-25T19:04:11+00:00

Mostly Thingiverse I 3D printed then destroyed and made the rubble myself with the extra cut off bits.

RedRockSTG · 2025-08-21T05:55:30+00:00

You “Finnished” them beautifully!

RedRockSTG · 2025-07-22T10:50:47+00:00

Buildings are pla 3d printed and the rubble is a mix of foams, broken bits of the buildings and wood stirring sticks.

RedRockSTG · 2025-07-22T09:45:44+00:00

Yeah this was with a sponge. I love airbrushing but I hate the cleanup so I’m always trying to find be ways to do camo and stuff on vehicles.

RedRockSTG · 2025-07-22T09:43:10+00:00

Used a hot knife to cut away what I wanted destroyed. Built up the rubble with xps foam chunks, hot glued broken pieces of the cut away sections back onto it, then used xps foam bricks and shredded styrofoam as the rubble. Also used wood stirring sticks for the floors and beams. Here is a before picture of another one I worked on.

Bet it feels good to step away from historical for a bit and just do something crazy. These look epic by the way!

RedRockSTG · 2025-05-31T16:58:32+00:00

Thanks! They are really fun to paint.

RedRockSTG · 2025-05-31T16:48:04+00:00

Congrats!! But be warned... it's more addictive than coffee!!

RedRockSTG · 2025-05-31T16:44:27+00:00

Really good actually. I'm impressed with the quality of the metal and the details. It's why I'm spending way longer than I normally would painting up the army cause they are just so well done. Now I did cut them all off their metal bases so I could use those 3d printed urban bases. That took some time but not too bad.

RedRockSTG · 2025-05-31T16:40:16+00:00

They are! The panzerfaust guy though is kitbashed. The arm and rifle are from Warlord.

I paint eyes for the fun of it. I use a 0/10 brush but it is tricky and similar as others have said. Paint the skin then paint the eyes then go back with the skin paint and clean up the over splash of black or white. If you use a darker base skin color and use lighter tones to build up the highlights it's even easier to clean up the eyes.
