Reviews, statistics and damn asthetic Lies

There is a weird thing about 15mm ww2. A vehicle being the correct shape is actually something of a rarity. Figures can vary hugely in height and physical size. Why this is so much of a surprise is that one scale up in wargames terms, everything is just about spot on for 1/72 and 1/76 th scale. this completely flummexes me. Why I hear you ask? ......................because every 15mm model is at a scale which is 1/100 or maybe 1/96 occasionally and 1/104 oddly. they obviously should be the same shape just slightly larger or smaller in every direction and the HO/OO 72/76 seems to get this exactly right. Well it doesnt seem to work that way with 15mm. i recently saw a professional painter put up 2 vehicles he had completed for scrutiny and how his comparison showed how one was clearly better than the other. My interest was tweaked because I had 3 of those same vehicles. Well here he is, the little semovente 75/18, sleek low to the ground on an underpowered chassis. he is a little distinc

My first fishing weights: Burma in 15mm!

Well, these are also the first ever photographs I took of miniatures, no zoom, auto focus and hand held digital camera pictures. I have been working on some 14th Army Peter Pig figures and some India pattern carriers obtained from QRF. My intention is to game the burma campaign, specifically the later battles around Mandaley. So far I have some British and Indian infantry (peter Pig 14th Army range) , the carriers from QRF. I also have some 40mm bofers guns by Battlefront with Bofers tractors and some Lend Lease Lee tanks by Stronghold Miniatures. The terrain is a bit incomplete, but Hey , It will get better as it gets closer to completion and I have more time to work on it . But that isnt now! The carriers have some reiver castings 20mm baggage on them. Something I had not considered as a possibility before, but works very well.
