About Me

A mythical beast - a female wargamer! I got back into wargaming in the summer of 2011 after a very, very long break and haven't looked back since. I must admit that I seem to be more of a painter/collector than a gamer, but do hope to correct that at some point in the near future. My gaming interests span the ages, from the "Biblical" era all the way through to the far future. I enjoy games of all sizes, from a handful of figures up to major battles (see my megalomaniacally sized Choson Korean and Russian Seven Years War armies).

Finished: 28mm WW2 Aussie Jungle Fighters #8



It was a bit of a push, but I did manage to get the two batches of Aussies based, varnished and tufted in time to post today. And here they are:


Tommy Guns






These are all Wargames Foundry "Chindit" figures.


Owen Guns





These are all Eureka figures.


Rifles





These are all Eureka figures.


Boys Anti-Tank Rifle





This team is from Warlord Games.



I've done a count up of all the figures painted so far and I've actually got enough to field two platoons plus supports. With the figures I still have left to paint, I'll be able to field a 20-man commando section plus supports, and an under-strength Papuan platoon. I'm tempted to buy a couple more Matildas so that I can field an armoured troop as well for "Big CoC" games.

  4. Great stuff Tamsin! Your jungle Diggers look spot on.
    I can never do such an Army - I wouldn't be a good sport playing it :-)
