One man and his brushes.: Ardennes’44 . More US vehicles and Volksgrenadier.

Picking up those brushes again.

Hi and welcome to the occasional mutterings of Dave Doc, a military modeller and some time gamer. Gaming and model making has given me a real education, History & Geography(obvious really), Artistry, Politics, Economics, Logistics, Project Management -you try building miniature armies without the last 3.

I will use the blog to record my creations & the odd occasion I actually do some gaming.

I have always been inspired by the aesthetic side of gaming. Playing on well constructed terrain using excellently painted units is always a joy.

Ardennes’44 . More US vehicles and Volksgrenadier.

Another busy week had . More US army vehicles and the top up to take me to a full Volksgrenadier company

M18 Hellcats - one of my favourites

M8 Greyhounds - another favourite

M16 AAA Halftrack

The ubiquitous Jeep

The vehicle column now extends to 8 feet long - that enough for now I reckon

Next the German infantry

3 VG platoons and company command . Plus the reduced strength Panzer Grenadiers platoon . That enough infantry for now l will add support options , HMG’s and Mortars . Then it’s into Vehicles .

It’s been a good week .
