Full company with 3 platoons and platoon commanders, mortars, MGs and PIAT.

I am using pigments for the bases but the mat varnish is killing the colours and whitening the bases. Can you tell me of any way to fix that?

Late War British Company
My first Late British company. After this, I am doing two more German and British, so four companies more in total, and then vehicles and houses.
A closer view. Models are fast painted with diluted paint and a wash. No lights.

These Late War British and German companies look fantastic.
ReplyDeleteThank you Melody!
DeleteHi Javier! WW2 is not a period of interest for me, but I can appreciate the quality of the painting of the minis, and I must that the result is great. Your fast method is really impressive. I like your bases too. But sorry, I know nothing about the various rules of this period.
ReplyDeleteThank you Phil. Since I "discover" this fast painting method I don't use any other. It's not quality but it's quite OK and fast. Cheers,
DeleteThose look great, love the paint jobs and basing! Sorry, I haven’t worked with pigments, so not sure how to help with the lightening.

Hey Jack, nice to see you around. I'm just returning to CF and coincidentally Steven's Balagan has released a series of CF mini games that are ideal for beginners. I hope to paint two more companies in August holidays and have some starting games too. Cheers,
DeleteHiya, Javier, it’s good to be seen! ;) Yes, I’ve seen those scenarios on the Balagan blog, good stuff, and those are a great set of rules, but I’m always too cautious. I can’t wait to see some Crossfire batreps from you.
DeleteV/R,

The thing is that CF is a great game but I'm terrible at it. I like it but I'm so used to play in turns that I feel I lost control. This would be my fourth try at CF and I'm going to try this time with a newbie and those introductory scenarios from Balagan, so maybe that way I'll learn to play it better. These companies I'm painting are for CF but also for Nordic Weasel's Company Commander solo gaming as well as for Poor Bloody Infantry, which is another game I tried long ago but I want to play it again on its new edition and with different players.
DeleteJavier,
DeleteThat’s hilarious man, you and I are exactly alike! I’ve tried Crossfire more times than I can count but it never seems to work for me, and you know I’ve played the heck out of 5Core Company Command. I haven’t played PBI, but I own it.
I’m really looking forward to seeing how you get on with these WWII Rifle Companies.
V/R,
Jack
Hahaha, maybe is like a lot of people feels about CF, the ones that don't play it. I hope this last time it makes click. I'll post my thoughts once I finished the 6 scenarios.
DeleteExcellent!
DeleteWonderful work as always Javier. The bases are excellent.
ReplyDeleteThank you Cato :)
