Mainly28s
Senior Airman
As I don't have anything suitable for the Pacific GB, I thought I'd show something from my "other" hobby- wargaming.
My username refers to the scale I prefer to work in, commonly called 28mm. The figures are usually 28mm from foot to eye (I know, a weird hangover from another time), and vehicles tend to be 1:56, with some preferring 1:48th. This, of course, ties in to my choice of scale for the aircraft I build.
My current choices are Bolt Action for WW2, focussing on the war in Italy:
This is a section of the Hermann Goering Division in Italy, around 1943. The figures are multi-part plastic figures, while the vehicles are resin.
This represents elements of the South African 6th Division, again multi-part plastic figures with resin vehicles.
I also have a US, another German Heer group and several more that are WIP.
I also collect Dark Ages for three rule-sets (Open Combat for skirmishes) and either Hail Casar or Warhammer Ancient Battles for larger-scale conflicts. The figures tend to be interchangeable, with sabot bases to allow use for whichever of the rules are being use that day. The figures tend to be either pewter, or (as these below are) multi-part plastic figures.
These are a small skirmish group of 8 Normans:
This is a full-scale Viking army (167 figures) which will all be finished to a similar standard as the Normans above. They are multi-based for ease of movement, but have quite a few singles which are also suitable for my skirmish games:
I plan to finish these in a relatively short time-frame, and will hopefully have these done in time for the start of the next aircraft GB.
