10mm WW2 Americans

The first of my 10mm armies for Blitzkrieg Commander and now as complete as it needs to be. They are intended primarily for the Tunisian, Sicilian and Italian campaigns but will also see action in NW Europe. The models are mostly Pendraken with some Minifigs and a handful of Magister Militum (Perrin). All are painted, based and ready for action. I should be able to field any battlegroup I want to with this lot! But there again..... who knows? I might think of something I want to add to it.

Painting   Paints are usually Vallejo (V) or Foundry (F) with some old Citadel(C) or Coat d'Arms (CA), all on a black undercoat (Halford's matt black spray primer). All get a "magic wash" with brown or black pigment. Magic Wash is Johnson's Klear, diluted 1:4 with water, then pigment (paint or ink) added to suit. Once the bases are finshed, all models are completed with a spray off CA matt varnish.   Vehicles   Base Colour - V887 Brown Violet or CA Olive Drab spray (works very well). Drybrush with F29A (Moss) then F30A (Raw Linen) then F30C (Raw Linen). Usual Magic Wash (brown) plus a final light drybrush.   Mid-war, North Africa   Helmet - V887 Brown Violet Jacket and Waders - V988 Khaki Jackets - V837 Pale Sand Pants - V873 US Field Drab Belt and Webbing - V886 Green Grey or V882 Middlestone Boots - V984 Mahogany Brown or V818 Red Leather HBT shirt - V893 Dark Green Rifles/Wood - V981   NW Europe, D-Day and Beyond   Helmets - V887 Brown Violet Uniform - V893 US Dark Green Mackinaw Jacket - V874 US Tan Earth Webbing - V914 Green Ochre or V886 Green Grey Boots and Scarves - V846 Mahogany Brown   Tankers   Windjacket - V988 HBT overalls - V893 US Dark Green Helmet - V887 Brown Violet Goggles - V872   Airborne   Uniform 80% V882 Middlestone + 20% V893 US Dark Green Webbing - V886 Green Grey Helmet - V897 Brown Violet Jump Boots - V984 Flat Brown   Airborne Midwar and DDay   Uniform - V977 Yellow Jump Boots - V879 Brown Webbing - V819 Iraqi Sand Helmet - V896 Dark Green Buckles - V790 Silver Wood - V879 Brown Scabbard - V968 Green Elbow/Knee Patches - V879 Green Spade cover - V819 Iraqi Sand Holster - V879 Brown Gas Mask Bag Black, HL V994 Grey   Glider Troops   Jacket/Leggings - V988 Khaki Trousers - V973 US Field Drab Webbing - V914 Green Ochre or V886 Green Grey Helmet - V887 Brown Violet Boots - V984 Flat Brown   Camo Suit   Base V821 German Camo beige Camo V984, V893   Mid-war, North Africa Helmet 887 Brown Violet Jacket and Waders 988 Khaki Jackets 837 Pale Sand Pants 873 US Field Drab Belt and Webbing 886 Green Grey   882 Middlestone Boots 984 Mahogany Brown   818 Red Leather HBT shirt 893 Dark Green NW Europe, D-Day and Beyond Helmets 887 Brown Violet Uniform 893 US Dark Green Mackinaw Jacket 874 US Tan Earth Webbing 914 Green Ochre   886 Green Grey Boots and Scarves 846 Mahogany Brown Brown Trousers 846 Mahogany Brown Shoecaps 950 Black Tankers Windjacket 988 Khaki HBT overalls 893 US Dark Green Helmet 887 Brown Violet Goggles 872 Chocolate Brown Airborne Uniform 80% 882 Middlestone   20% 893 US Dark Green Webbing 886 Green Grey Helmet 897 Brown Violet Jump Boots 984 Flat Brown Airborne Midwar and DDay Uniform 977 Desert Yellow Jump Boots 984 Mahogany Brown Webbing 819 Iraqi Sand Helmet 897 Brown Violet Buckles 790 Silver Wood 875 Brown Scabbard 968 Flat Green Elbow/Knee Patches 879 Green Brown Spade cover 819 Iraqi Sand Holster 879 Green Brown Gas Mask Bag 950 Black Highlight 994 Dark Grey Glider Troops Jacket/Leggings 988 Khaki Trousers 973 US Field Drab Webbing 914 Green Ochre   886 Green Grey Helmet 887 Brown Violet Boots 984 Flat Brown Camo Suit Base 821 German Camo beige Camo 984 Flat Brown   893 US Dark Green Vehicles Base Coat 887 Brown Violet Tank Camo 874 US Tan Earth Support Weapons 887 Brown Violet Pacific Marines Uniform 886 Green Grey
