Part II will be vehicles

Hey gang, what’s going on? A few folks have DM’ed me on Facebook asking about my DAK force that have been up on a few Battle Reports, and how I painted them. So here is a how-to step by step (literally) on how I built and painted my force, which looks like:

Infantry and guns, Basing:

If you don’t have the pre-holed bases/and have gun teams, score with a sharp blade diagonally on the base, which makes any spackle filler or even just PVA GLue/Sand stick better.

Plastic Soldier Company (PSC) recently released their much-anticipated . If you follow their , you may have been aware that the initial run of kits was missing the driver’s hatch, but PSC quickly retooled the sprue, and to my understanding has replaced any boxes that were missing this piece. I received my box from PSC over the holidays and I am very pleased with the kit.

The box includes five models, which can be built as the German A1/A3 or Canadian C1 variants. As new Team Yankee player who has picked up the West Germans, PSC’s timing is great. Battlefront has announced a plastic Leopard 1 kit to support the release of the Dutch, Canadians, and Australians later in 2018. I suspect, however, we might not see BF’s plastic Leopard 1 until much later this year. If you cannot wait, PSC’s kit is definitely worth your money.
