Same to you, fellow! Thanks for watching!

Ya! . . . and they were too small.

Well, that's the kind of enthusiasm we love in the Miniature Dork Universe. May the fumes be with you!

The tracks are a pain in the ass, for sure! I will show how I tackled that problem in the next video. I don't find the schurzen to be fragile at all, though. In fact, they seem pretty strong, as strong as the schurzen on the Victrix StuG III.

@ ah yes, I was thinking of the Pz IV schurzen which are Mildred on I think, but mare particularly the turret ones. I found that as soon as some ham fisted buffoon tried turning a turret they’d strip off. Not a problem with a StuG of course. I do like the idea of cannibalising parts though. Hadn’t thought of it and the Dragon kits are better suited since the wheels are separate.

Hi, there, I am using my 12mm for 'O' Group and 15mm for Crossfire.

I do both. I use 15mm for Crossfire, which is a company-sized game and 12mm for 'O' Group, which is a battalion-sized game. The smaller scale keeps the congestion down on the table for bigger games.

I'm still going to be working in 15mm. I just got distracted by shiny things! I first saw the Victrix 12mm figures a few years ago and decided to paint some up. I'll be working on some 12mm terrain for Italy and down the road there will be some tutorials on modifying resin terrain and making rubble. All the techniques can be used for various scales, though.

The labels are on 4mm or 3/16" Evergreen plastic strips, cut to 4cm lengths.

Thank-you, fellow. It's always an awesome place to visit and all of my in-laws are next level awesome.

@@daviessuperchannel Excellent. I've been to Wroclaw previously, for a little independent music festival, and the town square looked to be historically pristine, until you notice all of the buildings had a photo of that they looked like in 1945; just rubble for the most. The rebuilding to reflect the prewar fabric is just amazing.

Thanks Battle Brother! I was considering the Lamian medium, I just can't get my hands on some, I need to order it. That's way easier than sacrificing an alpaca to Satan! Plus, I like alpacas, but just on a platonic level. Anyway, it's good to know of a success story with it and a mix recipe.

Good tip!

One definitely needs magnification goggles. Otherwise, they are actually easier to paint, its just a series of tiny brush strokes with a 000 brush.

Tabletop sex. . . Now there's a title for my next Miniature Dork Universe saga. You'll need a credit card for that one. (And a strong stomach). UA-cam wouldn't like that one. The robocop algorithm wouldn't approve. You can have a video called "Headshots" where people get their brains blown out, but you can't drop an F-bomb without getting demonetized. You can show giant zits being popped, but you can't say WW2. Buncha wankers. Ooops, went off topic. . .

That's my band Existench! 97.48% of human beings hate it. . .

@@daviessuperchannel well, I for one did not hate it! I'll search for more of it, IT'S FUCKING AMAZING!

@@igoroliveira5086 Great! we have lots of stuff on UA-cam, we've been around since the 90's.

I have some videos on making wall texture for MDF and matt board buildings, making magnetized storefront signs and paved roads. That features some of my Normandy items. I've built most of my Normandy terrain already, but I must have something in my stash. I'll find something!

. . . at last! Somebody understands!! I don't know whether to be happy or terrified. The universe will will be ours.

Hello there, Mr. Doom, I am using mostly Victrix. I fill in some of the gaps with 10mm Pendraken. Things like drivers and crews.

@@daviessuperchannel brilliant thank you!

So many people liked this one, I will follow up with more.

Thanks! I bought the tufts around the gun on Ali Express, I’m not even sure the brand. Just search on Ali for miniature tufts or wargame tufts, something like that. They have a huge variety and the shipping is free for many of them.

Thanks, I'm glad you liked it. You're best off not to handle the leafy areas too much, but they are not overly fragile. Use live wood and PVC glue or the acrylic gel and it will fortify it.

I've been to most already. I've only omitted Auschwitz, my faith in humanity is already low enough. There's buildings in Warsaw with shot up facades from the uprising, wrecked buildings in Silesia, little signs all over the place.Then some great museums. I always have my eyes open, when I'm there, for something new.

Steven's Balagan is a great blog, I'm glad he keeps it going. So many good blogs have faded away over the years. It seems like most Crossfire players amend the rules a bit to suit them. It's a good game and simple to play, which makes it easy for rule changes. My planes are 1/144, they are easier to come by when it comes to plastic kits. 3D prints are starting to look pretty nice, too. Depending on which aircraft you need, the fellow at this site might be able to print you up some: bayonetsandbrushes.co.uk/contact/ I bought some Martin 139 bombers from him and I think he intends to have a large range of aircraft, including the weird and wonderful ones.

@@daviessuperchannel brilliant, thanks for the link, exactly what I need. I’ve got plenty of Zvezda Hurricanes and Messerschmitts, but Zeroes and Mustangs are a lot harder to find.

@@samb2052 Sweet Models makes wicked 1/144 Zero variants, including the Nakajima-built one with pontoons. They have pretty good Mustangs, too. You get 2 kits in a box.

@@daviessuperchannel I’ve never come across them, but I’m sure Google will oblige. 😁

Thanks! Good luck painting them up for Bolt Action.

Why doesn't that surprise me?

They've been talking about it since like 2019 lol

Thanks! No, the flock on the helmets was already part of the figures. Those two are from QRF.

Thanks! Yes, someone else pointed that out to me. Could those things be any more impractical?

@@daviessuperchannel Its the beauty of the early war arms race mate. Very little was properly tested under stress conditions and gave rise to some incredibly challenging and interesting scenarios I think. :) 🤣🤣🤣

That is a Flames of War figure from their Tobruk Bunkers set.

@daviessuperchannel appreciate that! If you ever run out of ideas for vids.. would love to see some NWE love, maybe some british armour/infantry painting? Loving your content mate 👍

@@thomashood155 Thanks, fellow. Yes, in fact, I am planning to do some 9th RTR Churchills and 15th Scottish Division infantry, so there will be some videos relating to that. It might take a couple of months to get started, but it's in the plans. I'm not sure what the topics of the videos will be yet, there are many great painting tutorials on the topic already.

I know, but at least they have wicked sound effects!

Thanks! It's kind of hard not to buy cool shit. . . The .50-cal is from Pendraken. They are 10mm miniatures, but they are actually a little more beefy than the 12mm guys. They are great for filling in the gaps, though. Minifigs has the water-cooled M1917 Brownings, if you want to do a historical battalion, rather than the 'O' Group list. The M1919 Brownings are company weapons, but this isn't reflected in the rules.
