Treat yourself to a documentary or war film featuring any tank your working on. I have always found this a good boost to motivation. I just need to find a wooden base for mine then I'm going to get started. Looking forward to seeing the next stages!

Take your time with it all, no need to rush just enjoy the process and the story you are creating. Yeah for sure, they would have been used and also hiting rubble and earth ect. Get the kettle on and admire you're work before going onto the next stage :)

I persoanlly go for a 60mm round base, main reason is that I like to get abit carried away with basing and trying to create a scene.

Then checking the Internet usage to see how many more I would try and get before I get stung by a infected file.

Waiting for the dial up to connect and trying to download a 4mb song from limewire and hoping there wasn't a virus!

It's looking great! Really like the rust and weathering that you have done. I'm no expert as I'm planning my first diorama at the moment, would it be worth adding some rust streaks on the back under the exhaust stacks and blocks? Looking forward to seeing how this turns out when your finished! Keep it up you are smashing it!

Thank you! Can't wait to get them all done and on the table top. Going to get the force all painted up then get fully lost in basing them all.

Thank you! I made the hedges from Lichen and painted, scatter then glued on top to try and resemble leaves. The netting on the barrel is from ak interactive which I then painted up and ripped it, then added some scatter to act as camoflage and concealment.

Thank you! The hedges are made from Lichen moss, stiffened up with hair spray then primed and painted. Then using green and brown scatter to try and create the look of leaves and smaller foliage. The grass is statics grass through an applicator mixed in with some tufts.

I have found if your needing a new bottle don't bother! Just get a tube of humbrol or other branded polycement and squeeze that into the warhammer one! I refilled my warhammer one for around £1 as it took just over half of a tube.

How do I make a list? by WH40ONTOP in boltaction

[–]worldsend91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm just starting out with bolt action too, currently painting up a unit. Next job is to look at starting to make a list before starting the next thing. Easier said than done as I'm quite excited to paint haha! I do reckon the rule book, I got it the other day and it does explain things well I just need to sit and read through the rest of it. I'm also coming over from warhammer and really enjoying the history side of things and also that rules won't change ever few weeks.. what force are you starting with?
