Hello all just wanted to share some pictures of some things i have done over the last few months. Now i know they are no where near as good as JB's, Ritters, or Tomstockton, but that is how we learn. Also i would like to thank JB and others for all the help they have given me on learning how to paint micro. I also want to apoligize for the camera picture no tri pod and some what poor lighting, but you can still get the general idea of it all.

First things first is my work area isnt it a wonderful mess!

2nd is a game that was played this past saturday at IUSB in South Bend Indiana. There was a small turn out of six of us, but we still had a great time. The terrian was mostly done by Roughrider a frequent browser of these forums. he especially did a nice job on the hill with the two bunkers that was the main objective of the allies, which in the end they overwhelmed the Germans, and Italians.

Next is a Pak 40 and a couple of Opel blitz that where done in panzer grey. I tried to paint the gun shield of the Pak gun camo, but maybe not so hot.

Looks great! I like the hedge lining the road...it's a nice touch.

I did up my first batch of terrain hexes over the last few evenings, but I'm struggling with picture quality...if I use the flash, they're overesposed. If I don't, then it's too dark and yellowish to show any color. Your pix turned out great...for me, I think it's a case of "Aziz...MORE LIGHT!" :D

I am more in to the naval side of the hobby myself, but I would be proud to drive in any one of your tanks.

You have done a nice job on them all, and your painting technique willl only get better the more you paint. So Happy painting and look forward to more photos of your work in future.

BTs, KVs, T-34s, Shermans, and M11/39s all in one posting?

Be still my heart! :lol:

I particularly like the subtlety of the weathering on the Shermans. Nice job.

And as to those Italians... ooh, gotta love 'em! But please do tell, where did you come up that camo scheme?

Thanks all for the comments. JB we did play to a conclusion the ALLies won, i kind of over compensated for the allies a little to much for the Germans and Italians to hold off. Plus Reid was holding the one flank and really did a good job he is slowly learning tactics. As for the Italian paint scheme i looked at several photos and in some ways came up with my own idea. I will look up the paint i used its vallejo i know that. once again thanks all.
