6mm American Civil War

Posted: March 8, 2012 in 6mm, Uncategorized

I recently painted some 6mm ACW troops for a customer, and he sent me back a few pics after he based them. My only part in this was to paint the figures. He subsequently based them and posed them with his own terrain.I also did not paint that nice-looking wagon in one of the pictures. [...]

Microscale Vietnam War

Posted: January 1, 2012 in 6mm, Uncategorized

Here are some shots of US forces of the Vietnam War. All of these are manufactured by GHQ, if I remember correctly.

The Modern Colombian Army in Miniature

Posted: August 7, 2010 in 6mm

These are from a game project I started a couple of years ago when a friend and I decided to game South American conflicts using Cold War Commander. At the time, the Colombian army had had a series of spectacular successes against the local FARC guerrilla movement. In response, Venezuela, which had been backing the [...]
