Panther Ausf. A - Warlord Games - WGB-WM-136


Hello everyone

It has been quite a while since I posted anything to this blog, but sadly I don't really paint a lot of historical miniatures at the moment. But recently I just wanted a nice and simple side project while working on something else, so I decided to paint this Panther that had been sitting on my shelf for years.

It's one of the old resin/metal kits from Warlord Games and it was just a joy to paint. I had a few years ago given most of my "historical tanks" paints away at my local club since I wasn't using them, so it was quite interesting having to mix everything to get something resembling the proper colours.

The camo pattern is done with freehand airbrushing, so overall this tank took no time to get done.

Anyway here are a few more pictures.




 This project really made me want to play some more Bolt Action, so should probably get on that :-D

Until next time

Germany - Waffen SS - Bolt Action - Warlord Games


Hello everyone!
A good friend of mine has been pestering me about painting the rest of my Bolt Action stuff for a very long time now, so I decided now was the time to paint the last 21 infantry models I had laying around and was planning to use in play.

The experience of batch painting 21 models which had to have Oakleaf and peadot camouflage on most of their uniforms was not a pleasant one, and more than once I was very close to losing my mind :-p

But now they are done! and I managed to take a few army shots.

Still have a Panther, a Hanomag halftrack to paint, but that will be for future projects.

Here are a few more pictures.

German E-100 Super Heavy Tank - Trumpeter - 00384


Hello everyone!

Its been quite a while since I've posted anything on this blog...sorry!
But a few months ago I painted this E-100 from Trumpeter, because I try to do at least 1 "real" scale model kit a year. Had this on the shelf for some time, so I thought it fitting to paint it and it was a really fun kit to paint (Assembly wasn't too bad either, tracks were shit tho...)

Painted basically the same way as I painted all my Flames of War 1/100 stuff, so nothing fancy there.

  
  
  
  

Short post, but hope you enjoyed :) if you want to see what I'm currently working on I would suggest following me on Instagram @DornsArrow, I paint primarily 28mm stuff, but sometimes a do other things :-p

Until next time! (Hopefully it won't be another year ;) )

Leopard 2 - Company command - Team Yankee - Battlefront


Hello everyone!

I recently tried my hand at painting a Leopard 2 from Battlefront, for their new game Team Yankee. When Team Yankee was released I was pretty stoked because I thought it would be cool to possible assemble a little Danish Force (If they ever decided to make it), but in the meantime a modern german tank force would suffice! :-D so I bought the German start set with 5 Leopards and 2 helicopters (The name escapes me).

I really love the design of the Leopard 2, it is with out a doubt my favorite modern main battle tank, and it was really cool to paint one. It's been a while since I painted a modern tank (and the last time I even painted it as a WW2 one... ).

Anyway enough talk, time for pictures! enjoy.

Until next time!

Elefant - Battlefront - GE132


Hello everyone

It's been while since I updated this this blog and for that I'm sorry. Most of last year I spent painting stuff for my friends and other favors but after having finished those projects, I thought it was time I finished these two Elefants from Battlefront. I actually started painting these at the same time I did my Otto Carius Jagdtiger, but then something got in the way, and they got shelved until now.

I did however kinda rush them finished, but even though I think they turned out fairly decent :)

Not much else to add, so have some more pictures!











That's it for now.

It might be a while before I update here again, but if you want to check up on my work go to my other blog Dorn's Arrow. My next project for this blog will probably be an E-100 in 1/35 scale.


Until then
Chris
