All aboard the struggle bus! Wooo woooo!

 Been struggling to be motivated to do anything lately.  However, I had primed these five assault marines a while ago.  My enthusiasm for 40K has all but diminished, but I will try to see through this small 2nd edition force project.

Die-Cast Stuka for Battlegroup

 I finally took a gamble on a die-cast Stuka in 1/100 or 1/110 scale.  It was an African theatre Stuka, so I stripped it down, sanded stuff off, and repainted it in a fake generic Eastern Front/Italian scheme.

Plastic Soldier Company 8-Rads (15mm)

 I've been in a serious hobby lull since over-doing it at Siege of Augusta.  While I'm constantly working on random rules, etc...I just hadn't wanted to pick up a paint brush.

When this happens, I find 15mm is normally my easy "get out of the funk" scale since I can pick up some cool kit, paint it in an evening and feel like I accomplished something.

I grabbed the PSC 8-Rad kit (231 and variants), and threw together three of the five, stashing the last two in case I ever do grey stuff for early war.



I made a basic Sdkfz 231...one Sdkfz 233 (with the short 75mm assault gun), and a more rare Sdkfz 263 8-Rad, the weird command model featuring only a hull MG.
