From the modeling desk

Well just about finish my soviets for flames of war and now they update red bear meaning i now have an extra 225pts to spend so a platoon of 5 T-34s i think will do nicely to help support the ISU assault guns. I like the red bear updates making the soviets more competitive i think although i last played soviets about 7 years ago under V1 rules i wish i never got rid of them lol. I'm glad the katyusha came down in points i really like the models but 350pts+ for the stronger ones just seemed over priced that's probably why I've never seen them used in any events I've been to so far.

My recently finished soviet scouts

Just need to get 4 more T-34s and 1 more ISU-152 and 2 37mm AA guns to go this the rocket artillery and my new 1750pts army will be ready for its first game.

Soviet Rocket artillery

My Latest project on my hobby table is a soviet heavy assault gun company just ordered the last bits i need for a 1750pts army hope to run it at NATCON 2014 next year in Christchurch.

Natcon 2013, CTA 2013 and Valleycon 2012 Armies

 My Natcon 2013 Army I gave the king tiger list out of devils charge ago i didn't know KTs could die so many different ways i finished 2nd to last in this tournament.

My CTA 2013 Army This army did better then i thought i had bought the openfire box set and quite liked the StuG models and had 2 from the Achtung Box set so wanted to give them a go I finished 12th equal out of 20.

My Valleycon 2012 army in action this was my first tournament in about 6 years so expectantly finished last but was good fun.
