Historicon 2015 Battlegroup Demo Recap

I ran 4 or 5 demo games of Battlegroup Kursk at Historicon this year. I think everyone had a good time, and picked up on the rules fairly quickly.

Here's some pics!

Saturday night's demo had a smaller set of tables, so I was forced to improvise and setup a bit smaller engagement.

Some WIP and Finished Models

Made some progress recently - finished up some American infantry and German SS infantry platoons.

AB Figures American Infantry Platoon and support

AB Figures, Battlefield, and Elhiem German SS Platoon and support

Also started in on some PaK 40 anti-tank guns from Italeri. These have been modified to move the forward armor plate back closer to the gun mantlet.

Italeri PaK 40s

And last but not least, some more T-34s from Plastic Soldier Company.

Plastic Soldier Company T-34s, a total of seven are paint in progress right now.

Some WIP for WWII

More kit being close to wrapped up.

Roden SdKfz 232. Just needs some (better this time) pigments and basing finished.

Dragon Ferdinand. Base and pigments.

Really satisfied with the Badger Sotar 20/20 I used to get the finer spray patterns.

Plastic Soldier Company StuG III ausf Gs.
This has to be the third or fourth time I've painted these tanks. 

And it really shows on these little guys:

S-Model Hotchkiss H38s.

Also snapped some better pics of the SS platoon I finished up a while ago:

AB Figures, Warmodeling, and one lone Blitz

On closer inspection, it appears I forgot to paint up the last batch's smock ties. May also go back and try and paint in collar tabs (probably black squares with some white dots) to give the impression.

And finally, a few more test figures for ETO US infantry (poor lighting and still a bit shiny from a recent dull coat that hadn't dried). Quite pleased with how they turned out.
