Modern Warfare (2) - Special Forces

Just a brief post this time, and the opponents to the last post. I didn't want to do what I usually do and buy far too many minis at once, so I stuck to a 12 man SEAL team which I will use as generic Spec Ops troops:

And that's it for now, a few helicopters and other vehicles to do, along with the last of the insurgents and a few specific desert type buildings and I'm calling this mini project done.

Modern Warfare (1) - The Insurgents

 My son has recently had a thing for Call of Duty - Modern warfare, so with that in mind we ordered a few miniatures so we could recreate our console battles on the tabletop. This isn't going to be a big project although we do want some helicopters and a few vehicles to add to our infantry, and now we've seen them we plan on adding a few zombies too, and being 20mm they will work with my Gaslands stuff should I ever want to do a more infantry based game. 

First up are the insurgent mainly because I enjoy doing civilians more than regular troops due to the variety of colours you can use, although in this case I kept a fairly limited palette:

I have a few more insurgent left to do mainly leaders and to Technicals, bit on to some opponents next.

Gaslands (9) Pedestrians and the final vehicles

This is probably the last Gaslands stuff I'll be doing(well at least until I find both an Ambulance and a more suitable Helicopter)

First up is this final car, not that I need anymore, but my 9 year old son built it and he couldn't be bothered to paint it and as I couldn't bear to see it go to waste here it is:

Next is Elheim miniatures Gyrocopter, I couldn't get the pilot to fit as nice as a more competent modeller would but its good enough for me:

A couple of size comparison pics:

and lastly a bunch of Elheim's post apoc 20mm minis to go with the one from the last Gaslands post:

Not sure what I'm going to paint next, I'll just see what appeals, but I might make a start on my 15mm Prohibition civilians and vehicles.

Gaslands (8) Refuelled

I recently received the new and updated edition of Gaslands, along with North Stars fancy sprue of conversion parts/bits.  Thusly inspired I set to work on adding a few more vehicles to my collection, primarily working on filling in the missing vehicles types(and using some of the nice new bits up at the same time).


Dragster:

Ice Cream Van:

Buggy(bit big but it'll do):

Helicopter(bit small but it'll do):

Tank:

and whilst not a different class as such, I have been wanting to add some Cops to the pool of vehicles:

(Northstars New) Motorbike:

And I did the first of my pedestrians(Elheim Miniatures):

And finally that most deadly of vehicles, the Princess Car(as painted by my daughter):

I have a Gyrocopter and a bunch more Pedestrians to do for Gaslands and that's it really, I'm still missing an Ambulance which if/when I see something suitable I'll get round to doing.

Back to 15mm fantasy next as I really want to finish off my Orc/Goblin warband and I only 15 minis to do.
