[Chain of Command]¶
Polish Infantry Platoon¶

Some months ago I watched a lot of Chain of Command videos on YouTube and read a lot about the rules - short story, I want to play that system.

A period of WWII I was always intersted in, was the beginning: Fall WeiÃ, the invasion of Poland in 1939.

So I married the two topics. For some months now, I have the Polish troops in my lead pile, today I started to prepare them for painting.

I ordered the infantry from Warlord Games, which sell 10 men packs - NCO, BAR gunner, 8 riflemen. The organization of the Polish Army Infantry Platoon, I took from a PDF on Lard Island, which has a Rifle Section of 18 men.

So from the total number of figures the packs from Warlord games provided me with:

I only needed the following models:

Leaving me with some spare ones (mainly BARs and NCOs).

The integral bases of the miniatures is quite thick, so I spent some time with a rasp, to flatten the bases down.

[Nemesis]¶
Core Game¶

Oil washes applied and a final coat of matt varnish applied. Aliens done.

The card holders were airbrushed similar to the aliens, gloss varnished, then the recessed letters white washed. The player number was printed on the grey plastic originally, and therefore got lost during painting. So I applied white decal numbers, and then blended them in with more Scurvy Green airbrushed over them.

The only brushwork on the aliens were the claws/teeth and the violet fleshy/membrane parts. The violet was highlighted with the same flesh tone as the green carapace.

The goo on the queen's base was painted in:

70.856 Ochre Brown
70.877 Gold Brown
70.951 Yellow

Everything was then sprayed in gloss varnish.

Here are the card holders before all the script on it was washed with white over the gloss varnish that helped the wash to flow.

Post Apoc Survivalists¶

The group is done. The main clothing of all the models was painted in the same grey based urban camouflage pattern. All the webbing is in the same olive color.

I will use these models as mercenaries. They have a mostly uniform look, but with enough individual clothing in between to mark them as a non-regular military unit.

Finally, the Scientist and the Captain join the Crew, again following the armour color as explained with the Mechanic.

Then I turned my attention to the aliens. They were zenitally airbrushed, where I tried to create a gradient from black to green by mixing in first green to black, then adding flesh for the lightest parts:
