First I made an attempt with plain fieldgrey uniform, but it lacked so much contrast so I changed to camopattern but keeping the trousers fieldgrey.<br />
<br />

<br />
Before start painting my Germans I decided to try a lighter highcontrast paintscheme on the last of the Stug G's I have from the Open Fire starterbox.<br />
<br />
With the Tigers of Tanner Simmons in my mind, thinking of what colours to use I gave my airbrush a good cleaning before starting the work.<br />
<br />
I based the Stug with a really dark mix of black and brown (Vallejo German Camo Black Brown) with my airbrush, and then I airbrushed Vallejo Iraqui Sand as basecolour.<br />
When dry I airbrushed the camopattern using Vallejo Flat Brown and Vallejo Reflective Green. This time I went for a more spotlike pattern.<br />
<br />
<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhNeRoQb2YVb3lKqqz8w8NZiJfWwtBCcMohyjDxRmcFEtlS6ZJo79fxVzGlcxg54KEqdGGX3rjNfYq39eLc2aNPqno05T_UBSg1N3ooKdCyvk86dfEd35lD9zxGWUoCf6i3qmb0bNLjrb21/s1600-h/1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhNeRoQb2YVb3lKqqz8w8NZiJfWwtBCcMohyjDxRmcFEtlS6ZJo79fxVzGlcxg54KEqdGGX3rjNfYq39eLc2aNPqno05T_UBSg1N3ooKdCyvk86dfEd35lD9zxGWUoCf6i3qmb0bNLjrb21/s320/1.jpg" /></a><br />

<br />
<br />
Next up was building up the basecolour to Vallejo Middlestone and softening the camopattern. First I used really thinned down (juice) Vallejo Flat Brown all over the Stug and when dry I juiced on a couple of layers of Vallejo Middlestone.<br />
<br />
<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEium8V8s1UBcAXK2id-5xwn987Rasj8FiY7l1yzxEpZWwIvymdUSp-9ySUoJPIqSexU2Az0Ge51-8qP25JgjVp3ASmHiC_NUAfItytLr9DxZMNIE4wnes8JnCskdTk-PnP20UhwcgEuFSHj/s1600-h/4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEium8V8s1UBcAXK2id-5xwn987Rasj8FiY7l1yzxEpZWwIvymdUSp-9ySUoJPIqSexU2Az0Ge51-8qP25JgjVp3ASmHiC_NUAfItytLr9DxZMNIE4wnes8JnCskdTk-PnP20UhwcgEuFSHj/s320/4.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
The next step is trying to get some contrast and weathering.<br />
I washed the complete model with really thinned down GW Devlan Mud Wash (Vallejo Smoke should do it, mine litterarely exploded on my keyboard and screen when I last opened it so I had to buy a <br />
new Smoke but got home with GW Devlan Mud. Had to try it) concentrating on the recesses and corners.<br />
When dry a wash of GW Devlan Mud + German Camo Black Brown to get some more contrast. And finally a wash of Devlan Mud + German Camo Black Brown + Black.<br />
<br />
<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgdbh-wWhDKFmyS5PHMR4uAoiJnZR2EL3KDe8n-nxstGHPEU3g8Tqo7_Kvkx4zF9u8qi-pJq5s9zL80DLP5xliaYFhxrFagE68VHwyu3oCFyanakcvre5_iiGZ9VJNOACwh4qap7DJqZn_C/s1600-h/6.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgdbh-wWhDKFmyS5PHMR4uAoiJnZR2EL3KDe8n-nxstGHPEU3g8Tqo7_Kvkx4zF9u8qi-pJq5s9zL80DLP5xliaYFhxrFagE68VHwyu3oCFyanakcvre5_iiGZ9VJNOACwh4qap7DJqZn_C/s320/6.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
<br />
The tracks were painted Vallejo Flat Brown, the boxes on the back washed in different brown washes. I chipped the model with Vallejo German Grey and Vallejo Pale Sand, and made some scratches on the Schürzen plates. The extra wheels were painted Vallejo German Black Brown and then Vallejo German Grey.<br />
<br />
<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhaLMP7ER8mGTbi4U6kXWQjL_2bwXL5A1pfmo7-DzTI1zV7smccvUSw4qRNNJZ8m6KoYav5ikSaoc5_Tn3L073_7oTIbl_8lNdn1jop3rRqPqJvb0ddGMu4c0HAjqi3UtAm8Mz641FJw63e/s1600-h/7.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhaLMP7ER8mGTbi4U6kXWQjL_2bwXL5A1pfmo7-DzTI1zV7smccvUSw4qRNNJZ8m6KoYav5ikSaoc5_Tn3L073_7oTIbl_8lNdn1jop3rRqPqJvb0ddGMu4c0HAjqi3UtAm8Mz641FJw63e/s320/7.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
<br />
A blackbrown wash on the tracks and a light patchy brush of GW Boltgun Metal was applied, and when dry I added some black and brown weathering powders to weather it some more.<br />
The jerry cans were painted dark green and as a final touch I darkened some recesses with thinned down GW Devlan Mud + Black.<br />
<br />
<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhzPZx_8bmAwlwsbOBYECg0o4OSprIuHBu1-C_bQxPw937jb9oVfCWk7mOZT9i244UngJr-Bw1tmhA50Cu7pYJaqdLSgSJw9pDUqh_bXm2epbynayiBqueRQZUt5ml9N5nI0CDTIciF_5QW/s1600-h/8.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhzPZx_8bmAwlwsbOBYECg0o4OSprIuHBu1-C_bQxPw937jb9oVfCWk7mOZT9i244UngJr-Bw1tmhA50Cu7pYJaqdLSgSJw9pDUqh_bXm2epbynayiBqueRQZUt5ml9N5nI0CDTIciF_5QW/s320/8.jpg" /></a><br />

<br />
<br />
Overall I'm really satisfied with the looks using this method. It get more contrast and I have more freedom using different weathering techniques with a brighter colourscheme.<br />
Now I must start painting my Panzergrenadier Platoon and get a proper place and setup to take better pics.<br />
<br />

'Bout time, right?<br />
It's been a while, and I have had very much at work last couple of weeks, but I have managed to do some stuff during some evenings.<br />
First of all I bought myself a small compressor for my airbrush (wich I purchased 1,5 years ago and havn't tried it out until now) and decided to try it on my StuG G's.<br />
This was pretty hard, but I think I've got the hang of it... soon. Worst part is cleaning it, hehe.<br />
Well, I decided to post a few work in progress shots of the first StuG.<br />
<br />
There's some more things to fix so an update will come in a few days when it is done!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhBv0m96eRZ0fJAzpLG24x24oTfQz5arux1DxSe-uGKoi4jbRbgLTtac4tAtRvftOXTlDpo5W7ZJn3wiNya7PYbuiRJwtdez0klyLrUGI1J_p0O-YiIx5oDSUk_cvW8WOrNfkdKE1DRa6OM/s1600-h/Stug1.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5345421808051769234" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhBv0m96eRZ0fJAzpLG24x24oTfQz5arux1DxSe-uGKoi4jbRbgLTtac4tAtRvftOXTlDpo5W7ZJn3wiNya7PYbuiRJwtdez0klyLrUGI1J_p0O-YiIx5oDSUk_cvW8WOrNfkdKE1DRa6OM/s400/Stug1.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; display: block; height: 300px; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; width: 400px;" /></a><br />

Completely. I felt that I couldn't afford the stuff I first planned.<br />But I made a pretty good decision though.<br />I decided to go for the German Armour paintset (mainly for lacking three colors and the shop I order from are the cheapest in the country I live in on FOW products, but doesn't stock the Vallejo range), the Art Of War II book (for inspiration) and (most important of all) Fortress Europe!<br />Yep! Changed it so I can focus on one (for a starter) army and truly spend time on it. So while I'm working on the two StuG's and doing some terrain tests, I'll fully plan a complete army and stick to it.<br />See ya soon.<div class="blogger-post-footer">More...</div>Rofenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03441453570990679257noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5362779445129003736.post-39993621389062671212009-05-21T18:34:00.010+02:002009-12-31T07:08:03.009+01:00NO PAINTING!!!Turned out that I didn't start painting the last tanks today. Instead I mowed the lawn and went food shopping (it echoes in the fridge after a week abroad). But, I just splashed some paint on my new little "diorama" piece (mainly for taking photos of my tanks), and added some watereffects. I've decided to make a couple of small dioramas just for getting the right touch when I start building a couple of gamingboards.<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<br />
The first gamingboard will be, oddly, 90x90cm set in France, Bocage terrain-style. Last night me and my girlfriend watched some Band of Brothers episodes, (just because it's the next best tv-series after Twin Peaks and because I feel that it's one of those that you can watch whenever you feel like it and you still love it, just like "Lost In Translation"!), and I got some nice terrain ideas. So I'll start a gamingboard as soon as I'm ready for it.<br />
<br />
Well back to the importent part.<br />
As I only have the "<a href="http://www.flamesofwar.com/product_details.aspx?ProductId=3028">Open Fire</a>" starter, I decided to order some miniatures, and start adding infantry aiming to get a playable 600 points force.<br />
First out will be the Germans...<br />
<br />
This is what I decided to get:<br />
<a href="http://www.flamesofwar.com/Default.aspx?tabId=117&CategoryID=7791&ProductID=289&PageIndex=3">GERMAN Company HQ</a> (Late)<br />
<a href="http://www.flamesofwar.com/Default.aspx?tabId=117&CategoryID=7791&ProductID=290&PageIndex=3">GERMAN Grenadier Platoon</a> (Late)<br />
GERMAN Armour Paint Set (I already have a few colors here, but wtf...)<br />
GERMAN Infantry Paint Set (Same here...)<br />
ART OF WAR II Book (Is this any good?)<br />
<br />
I still have time to change the order, and I'm in doubt if I should get the "D-Day" book or not.<br />
I guess I'll have the night, probably even the weekend, to sleep on it before they ship it...<br />

It's such an amazing country(?).<br />Havn't touched a paintbrush in over a week, but I'll probably start painting my Stug G's and my last Sherman tomorrow, so I'm pretty desperate.<br /><br />As you've probably noticed I have started working on a new layout, and I hope I'll be satisfied with it when it is done. It will most likely look a bit different every time you visit it in the comming week or so, but I'll try to hurry things up.<br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">FEEL FREE TO ADD A COMMENT REGARDING THE LAYOUT, WHAT TO IMPROVE ETC.</span><br /><br />Oh, and I'll try to post a few new pics as soon as the Stug's and Sherman are finished.<br /><br />Cheers!<div class="blogger-post-footer">More...</div>Rofenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03441453570990679257noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5362779445129003736.post-37017636987600720222009-05-10T09:19:00.004+02:002009-05-10T09:39:29.022+02:00SCOTLANDToday I'm heading for Scotland for a week. Havn't been there for two years now, so it'll be pretty fun. (Only downside is that I'll have to drive on the wrong side of the road.)<br />It'll be a chance for me to read the complete Flames Of War rulebook and finish planning my blog, i.e the layout and content, while sipping on a dram.<br />Happy painting and gaming, and I'll be back in a week!<div class="blogger-post-footer">More...</div>Rofenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03441453570990679257noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5362779445129003736.post-78232394542426784132009-05-08T14:02:00.002+02:002009-05-09T19:44:05.062+02:00UP AND RUNNING!Hoy!<br />I finally found myself falling for <a href="http://www.flamesofwar.com/">Flames Of War</a>. A truly amazing miniatures wargame set during World War II. When I got the Open Fire starter I was wondering why not create a blog to share my part of the game.<br /><br />The Europe In Flames blog is under heavy construction right now, so it will look a bit different in the future. I hope you don't mind.<br /><br />I 've only painted one Sherman so far, so pictures of the other two will come later on.<br />My first FOW miniature painted. It lacks some markings though.<br />The photos are not the greatest...<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjNUfaTuG-rcsaKtSrq0VK5AY4-S1zJcod5LbbrQPHJiuRG6oEgnhIqWZEOv69EBl19v7k8cjdyBZKeIQikOpuVp9rOcU_hOx70zahJ9pG5DHYGDINhoV36tNjIu1dxv0MlzN67GNCoPc7o/s1600-h/firstsherman.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjNUfaTuG-rcsaKtSrq0VK5AY4-S1zJcod5LbbrQPHJiuRG6oEgnhIqWZEOv69EBl19v7k8cjdyBZKeIQikOpuVp9rOcU_hOx70zahJ9pG5DHYGDINhoV36tNjIu1dxv0MlzN67GNCoPc7o/s400/firstsherman.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5333482725575691234" border="0" /></a><br />An other pic of the Sherman.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgUtHUzaRJ_jG_-OIEpYu6k652O3s1t0LFouulZXY6HbIvQhc-X1mlxEmAgcfaEijd-hMYm0KGyI_L1XccEq53g_pRjq5qg39bVqNJaj0jU5K5OvVcyrXK2Jo93chH1-pHNxkWoObH_nz25/s1600-h/firstsherman2.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgUtHUzaRJ_jG_-OIEpYu6k652O3s1t0LFouulZXY6HbIvQhc-X1mlxEmAgcfaEijd-hMYm0KGyI_L1XccEq53g_pRjq5qg39bVqNJaj0jU5K5OvVcyrXK2Jo93chH1-pHNxkWoObH_nz25/s400/firstsherman2.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5333877435761174754" border="0" /></a><br />Before I got my miniatures I created a small displaybase for them.
