Draco - Task Force Bravo
Metal Bawkses!
Do you have any idea how long I’ve been wanting to use this meme?
Yep, the boxes are finally done! Well, at least the first 12 are – a HQ Box, 10 squaddie Boxes, and a FOO Box.
Look! FV432's! FV-FOUR-THREE-TWOOOOOOOOOS! Our enemies hide in REAL LIFE METAL BAWKSES!!, DA KOWARDS! TEH FEWLZ!Its still very pleasing how well this camo scheme is working out. Its certainly not an airbrushed scheme as shown in the book, but it also doesn’t exactly have the have the hard edges that i’m more used to with painted schemes.
But at least I have found a method of doing somthing similar to an airbrush job that I’ll be able to use when I finally get around to my Poles and their T-72 swarm. And their own armed Boxes.
I’ve still got another 4 Mortar Boxes, and even 3 Swingfire Boxes, to go, although the latter are probably going to be way down on the priority list. I still need one more box of Boxes, however, to do 3 Platoon’s Boxes, but, again, that’s further down the list.
I also managed to finally get the last of D Company painted up.
D Company, 3rd Battation, Royal Regiment of Fusiliers, in all their battlefield glory...It is a satisfying feeling to finally get a major part of your project out of the way.
So, what next? Well, apart from the Mortar Boxes, I think its time to call in some friends. Those magnificent men…
