Bolt Action - October Update

 I would hesitate to call my Bolt Action project 'done'. but I'm certainly packing away the unused sprues, and forcing my self to take a break from drooling over the warlord mini's website for a while.

I'm at a nice point now, where I have a couple of decent sized armies, with plenty of options. Enough to hopefully play a good number of games before I get bored and want to add more to my collection.

That being said, what remains on the unpainted sprues would are a good number of potential units, mostly regular British and German infantry that would form great backbone units.

Aside from this, I've got a big box of trees to base and spruce up which should help adding some dense terrain to my tables, as well as some gravel roads to finish off.

I've got to say that these guys are pretty rough in terms of finish. I think the same can be said of most of my Bolt Action stuff. I've been really keen to get them 'tabletop ready' I've definitely cut a lot of corners. I have made a start though. I've dug out the British Paras, which were the unit that I started with back in June, and i'm now going back over them, tidying up, and trying out a more subdued scheme for their smocks.

So without further ado;
