More Vehicles for Jim

Painting up some modern MRAP vehicles for Jim and an M5 Stuart.  Supposedly these vehicles are both 25/28mm size.  The MRAP trucks are huge (think tractor trailer rig) but the Stuart may be a little undersized.  Dunno, need to see them side by side!


And here are some finish shots of the vehicles plus some NVA infantry.  I included a 25mm Soviet mini from Eureka as a reference to size.  The MRAP is a beast, no wonder it has a ladder for climbing in.






28mm ACW USVA Figs

Painted and based more 28mm ACW figs.  US Volunteers this time.  Figs by Sash and Saber, Flags by Flag Dude.


Organizing Collections with "Dave's Baggage Train" Trays

I purchased trays and inserts from "Dave's Baggage Train" and have been organizing collections into the trays.  The 1" deep trays with 1" sorting inserts work well for Command Decision and other things based on 3/4" and 1" bases.  The 2" Deep trays with 40mm inserts work well for 15mm Medieval armies that are on 40mm bases and have long spears and flags.  The 3" deep trays work for 28mm figs with flags and long spears.  Recommend all their products.
