Korean War Project -nearly there

A few things got in the way pf my forgotten war project ,then Pendraken brought out a specific supplement for Korea which changed the army lists slightly and also took the war from the cold war commander rules to the blitzkrieg commander set ,luckily i have both sets so n0 issue and then Pendraken released loads of new toys for the period included a Psy ops set , so a big order went in. Any way about 80% finished now so some pics of my painted stuff on hills made by myself ,more than a pretty face hey.

Korean Project Update

Thought I would keep posting progress reports even if only to keep my interest going , I easy get led away to other projects . Still only doing a few figures just to make sure I am happy with the colours and basing . During the winter the British and Commonwealth troops were supplied with UA army parkas but I have done acouple of the officers in para smocks which dont really show upp in the pics and ythe senior officers in duffle coats . The Army packs are great value covering all you need in Command Stands ,Infantry and HMG's and Mortors ,I bought a few single packs of troops throwing grenades and carrying LMGs just to add variation ,some tanks and Jeeps just to add to the command stands. I have tried to keep to the basing reccomendations but they are not critical so the British HMGs ended up on round bases just because they hung over the reccomended sizes . Really impressed with the rules and also the quality of the book and the free downloads such as the army lists shown below

My Winter Project -Korea the forgotten war

Decided to set myself a project with the target of being completed and ready to game by March 23 . So my choice was the Korean war and decided on British and Chinese troops in winter gear ,also decided on a new scale ,for me anyway 10mm . So ordered a couple of army packs and some odd bits from Pendraken along with their rules Cold War Commander 2 ,I already have acouple of sets that could handle this conflict but liked the write ups for these plus Pendraken have lots of online free stuff such as army lists and rules for weather etc on their forum. So below are some work in progress pics ,a stand of chinese scouts done as a test and a centurion and some brits in various stages of painting ,I will keep regular updates going even if only to spur me on.
