Machine of destruction

A Mercedes Benz 280SL survived the apocalypse. Once a luxury car, now a machine of destruction. It is a 1:43 car, which I converted with a few items: For example green stuff, an old creditcard cut in pieces, the driver and window from an abandoned slot car, and a screw cap.

The car was sprayed black and I repainted it. After that I used brown washes and drybrushed yellow and white to make the car appear dusty and rusty...as things should be in the wastelands.

The good people from Post Apoc Wargames Forum suggested that I should build a weapon on my car. Good idea, and I cut a lollipop stick in seven parts, glued the parts together, wrapped green stuff around them. Paint, wash, drybrush, voila! Minigun!

Anglo-danish Hearthguard

I have just started playing SAGA. I have painted to small warbands - Anglo Danish and Vikings, made some terrain and I have played a few games. Great game, got me back into wargaming.

Here are four Anglo Danish hearthguards. Gripping Beast plastics and vallejo paint.
