From Guy B: Running out of time! [Death Star] (100 points)

Well, things haven't quite gone as planned. I have a load of BEF infantry and vehicles on the go, but life has become very busy all of a sudden! After having Covid and a very busy February, oh and finishing a magazine!


So, I'm posting what's ready to date and with luck I might get another post before the challenge ends - it probably won't be a Tuesday tho, as the last day is a Monday!

So, what we have here is a conglomeration of things. There's twelve BEF infantry and one vehicle. The BEF are painted in a mix of English Uniform (VMC and Khaki (VMC 988). I've used Yellow Green (VMC 881) for the webbing. The helmets are polished off in Citadel Militarum Green.

The Belgian T13 was a test paint of a 3D print, not great but 'good enough' for an up and coming event. I'll hope someone does a decent T13 Tank destroyer and replace it in the goodness of time.

The tank is painted a very basic khaki grey (VMC 880).

So to sum up - the T13 is definitely of questionable design and is itself a questionable print! I count twelve soldiers (60 points) and one vehicle (20 points), plus the challenge bonus (+20) making 100 points for this round.

Best get back to painting! 



Nicely done Guy! I can't comment on the questionability of the print of the T13, but its design certainly was questionable like many tanks from the 1930s.

  1. Well done on getting these done Guy. Do you think you are going to catch up with Jasper? Surely you'll have a trick up your sleeve for the final furlong?
