6mm Dutch Napoleonics

Hello! I have done some work on my 6mm Dutch Napoleonic Army. I finished 9 stands of Dutch Militia. Stand by for further updates.

Just need to do the basing and they are done!

Whats been going on? I finally setup a nice workshop/hobby/gaming area. Have a look!

 The workshop zone!

The gaming zone!

Still waiting to setup some shelves for the rest of my games.

Besides setting up my nerd cave, I also started working on the first edition Age of Sigmar starter set. Its the smallest version and they no longer make it.

Here is my progress!

They have since been primed grey. Be back with some more pics soon!

Vintage GHQ + Prep cleaning minis!

I just got an order of some discounted GHQ. Some of them are pretty old but the sculpts are still good looking so I don't mind. So let me give you an overview of the minis I got then I'll show you how I prep clean my minis using an ultrasonic cleaner.

2 packs of German Raketenpanzer. Iltis jeeps, and Leopard II A4's. Russian BRDM 1 Swatter and Zil 57k fuel truck. Finally American LVTP-7's.

 Lets have a closer look at the LVTP-7s!

Right out of the blister. Two turrets and one other piece. I don't know what it is!

 So this is the ultrasonic cleaner. Just add water and a bit of soap then set it for the maximum time.

In the tank with just enough water to cover the minis.

Adding some soap!

It will froth with many tiny bubbles cleaning the minis very efficiently.

Here they are set on a cloth to dry before being painted. If you have any more questions about prepping minis ask away!

Samurai armies from Baccus! Its an awful lot of miniatures. I'll crack open these bags and have a look at everything hopefully soon. I just don't have the space available right now. I have waaay to many ongoing projects.

 The Box is super heavy.

 I ordered two sets of the Samurai Army.

 I ordered a bunch of extra units like monks, mounted bows, and mounted samurai for each army.

Also ordered some bases for these armies and also for my Dutch cannons.

Order from Gamecraft Miniatures

Good day. Its Thursday. I received TWO packages today! The first one we will look at is from Allen Rockwell at gcmini.com This order came in record time I must say. The box even had some candy in it!

 Candy!

 I got these awesome project boxes. They stack so I can save some desk space.

I put together the first set. 

Besides the sweet boxes I got an add on pack for Test of Honour, some 6 sided dice, and some GHQ miniatures.

Russian T-80 and BMP2 box.

 Russian GAZ Tigrs.

Russian BM-27 Urugans

Thanks to Allen and Gamecraft miniatures! Check back tomorrow for the breakdown of the package I got from Baccus!

I was looking at my Micro Armor this week. I have continued to collect modern American units but I wasn't sure what I had. I also wanted to order some Russian units so I can actually play GHQ's Modern Micro Armor game. I ordered a Russian T-80 combat command box, Gaz tigers, and some MLRS units from Gamecraft Miniatures. I also ordered some project boxes too. Hopefully these will help me organize my desk a bit better. Allen Rockwell is the guy who runs Gamecraft minis. He has a fantastic YouTube channel which you can see here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC_zjLdVqHHYiDYJvjSARV9Q

Test of Honour arrived Saturday. I was excited to put together a few miniatures and get the painted. Here's a samurai I finished yesterday.

I think the gold areas need a wash. Also I haven't based this yet. I have some nice Gamers Grass in mind for this.
