This past weekend was a slow gaming weekend. Family and household tasks got finished, which is nice, but no wargaming or RPG occurred.

I did manage to get the first bit of camouflage paint on my FJ support. I need to work on tracks/wheels and do a wash, but these at least are coming along. I found it interesting that the Wehrmacht did not have a standard camo scheme, and after looking at pictures of AFVs in museums or in historical texts and online, it really seemed like some were sprayed, some were painted and as long as there were three colours I’d be good. I also noticed that quite often vehicles were not photographed with designations or squadron/battalion numbers. I will be ordering some decals nonetheless, as I like the look of them. All that to say that I am happy to note that I’m not breaking the mould as there is none so on I paint!

An additional gaming related event happened today: the arrival of a medieval tower I purchased last week from the Wargames Alchemist. The price was very reasonable, the process was quick and painless, and the product was as ordered and very well packaged. It arrived quickly and I’ve now taken to looking at the ‘Alchemist’s site routinely. It is a mix of 15, 20 and 28mm so far spanning Ancients to WW2 so I suggest that you check it out!
