Great Stuff
@Paul, Ferrett, FMJ and Luca.....beautiful stuff.
@ Paul, Good to see you are painting stuff again Paul. I think I saw some of your 10mm ACW stuff a few weeks ago as well.
@FMJ, the Blenheims are awesome. I have about 6 of those laying around unpainted from the same manufacurer. I guess I shall have to paint them now.
Nice.

Hi all,
I base them according to the GHQ rules. Each stand is a platoon.
The roman number stand for the Battalion (I, II, II, ecc...)
the letter for the Company (A,B,C,D)
The number for the platoon (1st, 2nd, 3rd).
minor stands carry just the designation of the type of weapon (for expl: the boys rifles are labelled as ATR, the mortars with the tube size, etc..)
I put the Anti Tank Rifles of small metal roundels to save space, and also because this way they look more "stealthy". I have a dozen of similarly based 37mm german paks, they're really cool, they seems to lay in ambush.
I use the ABCD also for the German companies, to me it makes more sense then using another number.
I use the Litko flexible steel bases, 1 inch square. I store them in boxes layered with similar size magnetic bases.
Bye,
Luca

You guys have some incredible talents! I have not tried my hand at infantry that small, its amazing what you all can do! I have some Micronaughts that I have been working on... I'm always open to constructive criticism!

Show Us Your Stuff
Begemot
Great work on all those pieces. I really like the camo pattern on the Stug III. You also painted the roadwheel tires as well which looks great.
Your 1970's era Americans are really well done. For those that don't know, GHQ does not currently make 1970's and early 80's American infantry. Begemot actually filed the "Fritz" helmets down a bit to make them look like the standard steel pots that were in use at this time.
Brutzel
That is a very nice selection of modern era equipment. Thanks for showing it to us.
Attackcamel
Those ships look very nice and I appreciate the effort that went into the camo patterns.
If there was one thing to critique it would be that the deck colors on the two Japanese
Kongos and the German ships look a bit too dark. Other than that, they look great and a lot of effort went into them.
