Productive September
WIP - USMC Amtracks 15mm
We’re getting ready for an 80th Anniversary commemorative wargame recreating part of the the US Marine Corps’ landings in the Mariana Islands in June, 1944. Specifically, we’ll be looking at Red Beach on Saipan, where 2nd/6th and 3rd/6th Marines (2nd Marine Division) landed against 136th Regiment, 45th Division, Imperial Japanese Army.
Needless to say, I’ll be needing some serious LVTs to put my Marines ashore. These include LVT(A)-1, LVT-2, and LVT(A)-4s.
The majority of these were provided by Blair Fenning Sr. as 15mm 3D prints, which I’m now in the process of painting.
Primed black, then case coated dark green. So far I’ve worked the tracks, machine guns, mud and sand along the sides, and some basic markings.
Touchups are still to be done, include pin washing and a light drybrush.
