More troops to paint for Battlegroup.

A new post. As most of you already must have noticed I don't post much new posts in my blog. This has several reasons. First and the most important one is that I don't do much painting anymore. Hope this will change in the future. Another thing is that English ain't my mother language and lately I'm getting more problems concentrating on writing and reading english and thus make more and more mistakes. Also spent a lot of time reading books.
But now my 3 weeks vacation is getting close (2 more weeks to wait), I am bored and I want to have something to do in the evening (there isn't much to watch on TV) I bought some new stuff to paint. Box with the M26 Pershing platoon, the D7 Bulldozer blister and the M4A3 (105) Sherman blister. Ofcource these can also be used for FoW but the chance that will happen is zero.

Battlegroup: M4A3E8 Easy Eight (Uparmoured).

Finally a new painted miniature for my US army out the Battlegroup Fall of the Reich book.
It took so long because when opening the blister I noticed that the gun-barrel was missing. After several emails towards Battlefront and a lot of promises from Battlefront that they would sent me a new gun they finally, after 3 months, sent me a new blister. This after I got angry in my last email sent to BF that it took so long.







For now this will be the last painted miniature for Battle group. Next I will buy the Battlegroup Blitzkrieg book.
Maybe I will need some extra miniatures for my French army.

Thanks for looking.

Battlegroup: M36B1 Jackson.

Battlegroup Fall of the Reich has no stats for the M36B1 Jackson only for the standard M36 Jackson. This means that I will use this model with the stats of the standard Jackson. Or I can use the stats as given at the forum, in agreement with my opponent of-course, after asking a question about this. An other option is that I take the turret of the M36B1 Jackson and the hull of one of the M10 Wolverine I have to make a standard M36 Jackson (see last pictures).

Battlegroup: M4A3E2 Jumbo (two turrets 75mm or 76mm gun option).

Next painted model for Battlegroup Fall of the Reich. This time it is the M4A3E2 Jumbo. It has the option to take the 75mm gun option or 76mm gun option.
All things that look like mistakes, like the decals, are on purpose.
