Hairspray chipping - first attempt work in progress. Pretty happy so far, progress update to follow plus a bit of a how-to guide if someone would like it. Let me know if you do want something?
I have realized that I don't have a picture of my 8th army here. This is a side project, I have only completed one squad plus a few guys but here you go. or click here to see the image full sized
I found these images hiding away and wanted to share them so you could compare the corgi SDKFZ 7 with the warlord games resin.
I think youll agree those look more than comfortable sitting next to each other on the table top..but how about when we add the infantry next to them? Perry? Warlord? Artizan? Offensive? Hmmmm......
So ; heres my point for us. And a challenge to Rex for the next WIP podcast;
Scale. In particular the challenges of 28mm 'scale' wargaming.
Why cant we have nice things? why do we fight like cats in a bag over the size of models -especially vehicles and armour - to use?
I have a lot to say on the subject, and hopefully some of it might not even bore you!
We have the next episode 'In the Can' and almost ready to go, but this ones 'stood in the door' as our topic for the following podcast.
Have a great weekend team and get some games in!!

Podcast EP24: A chat with Jon Russell.
In this bumper episode, we are joined by Jon Russell of Warlord Games fame. In addition to his dedicated work for Warlord, Jon is a multifaceted wargamer and also veteran of many years service.
In this episode we spend time learning about Jon's wargaming pedigree, before learning more about his role at Warlord, the writing of 'Bolt Action: Korea', and Jon shares with us what he can about what Bolt Action V3 might look like, and the 'Raiders Attack!' Supplement that still has much life left in it.
All this plus Warlord event support, balance in tournaments and other definitely non-controversial(!), highly entertaining and informative topics. Sit back and enjoy a chat with Jon, and us, we hope you enjoy it as much as we did.
