The (in)famous French officer from “The battle by the abbey at the river le Grande Baguette”
He made a miraculous recovery and is back in business with some new flock on his base.
Chewing on something and carrying a big big cavalry saber.
The varnish killed almost all detail to his face unfortunately. But for standard tabletop he will do.
The model is made up by spare part from those lovely Victrix boxes and a saber from one of the Perry cavalry boxes.

Hell dorado – Candle
I painted another Lemure, Candle has to be one of my favorite sculpts.
I tried to paint it as the burning tail casting a warm light and a blue daylight from the other side. I realize that’s their not much daylight in hell but I like the effect.

Snow terrain, tutorial
Snow terrain tutorial
I was asked how I made the bases on my latest flames of war miniatures so I thought that a small tutorial would be in order.
I will show the techniques by making some areaterrain.
On my miniatures I had painted the base in light brown but here I will use the natural color of the sand.
After I glued on the sand on the terrain pieces I waited for it to harden.
Next step is to use an old brush and some more white glue and adding the first grass color. After that a second color of grass. I like the effect of mixing more than one type of grass.
When they had hardened I added the snow.
And luckily for this tutorial it had snowed during the night so I can show you some pictures from my window showing the effects I am after.
Edit: I forgot to mention that the snow is from Woodland Scenic, and I think it was this one

StuG Begleit
To my StuGs I also wanted some Begleits.
Armed with assault rifles.
The miniatures are a mix of Battlefront and Skytrex to give a better variety.
And shown together with the Sturm Grenadiers.

Sturm platoon
Some time ago I decided to repaint my StuG company in winter camouflage.
That work has been a slow one.
Instead of repainting the infantry I got me some more. Seems stupid to repaint a perfectly good miniature.
So here is the fruit of that labor, and the miniatures I made that test snowbase for.
Some Sturm Grenadiers to act as support to StuGs.
Hell dorado – Ringhioso
Here we have Ringhioso from the game Hell dorado, another Lemure in hell.
I went for a brown-yellow tone on this one.
The first picture is taken in one of my flowerpot. It made a nice background I think.
