UN vehicles finished!

Well, good news and bad news....
First the bad news...I didn't get the Presidential Palace completed like I thought I was going to. That's going to be a "one more weekend project". It's about 90% done right now...
But now...onto the good news!
My Bongolesian UN Peacekeeper troops have just gotten a boost in vehicles, and firepower! (As pictured below):


A Cadillac Gage V-150 with HMG and two French AMX-13's painted in UN Colors, have been added to the UN arsenal....


With the exception of about half a dozen more trucks for the UN, and some extra troops to be painted, my peacekeeper force is pretty much done, (oh...they will be getting a helicopter too in the near future.)
So take a look at the UN vehicles and say "Hello" to the New World Order....
Comments are appreciated...

Projects on the table, (done and being done)....

Well here it is....another fun-filled update with what is going about on my project table right now for Bongolesia.
First off, to let folks know, I am still working to set up stuff for the Origins game, and am working on the last batch of vehicles, (Non-USMC) for the game. Here they are below.



UN V-150, NDF BRDM-2, 2 Landrovers, 2 Technicals, and 2 Gaz Jeeps...all ready for final painting, sealing and adding to the collection.


2 BTR-152's and the BRDM-2, ready for sealing....I'm happy with the camo jobs on the BTR's. It had been a while since I had done a camo job.

One of the weaker factions in my AK47 games has always been the UN forces. In the past they've simply been armed with trucks, infantry, and a couple of M-113's with HMG's, (well there is "The Blue Swallow", a French Air Force Pilot of a Mirage-2000 that is their "on call" air support)...
Realizing that the UN needed a little more "bite", I started working on these...


2 AMX-13's and a V-150, and a couple of extra trucks...This should make rebels and thugs think twice about trying to stop food shipments to refugees...

And finally...FINALLY....

The best thing about a snow day weekend is the fact that is gets you to painting. This weekend wasn't a snow day weekend, but I still have the motivation to put paint on stuff and finish projects (!)
Who would've thought that was possible?

One of my projects was my "Coastal Trawler"....I am glad, and proud to say that she is finally "Done"...

Ladies and Gentlemen, I present to you, "Le Petite Marie"....


This little baby moves along the coast of Bongolesia, for hire to anyone that can pay the price, no questions asked...


Yes, the Le Petite Marie....ready to haul cargo, passengers, or just go on "A three hooooouuuurrrr touuuuurrrrrr..."
I'm hoping to get more stuff painted by the end of the weekend, including plans to finish the Presidential Palace....
And then of course, pics will be forthcoming...
Comments are appreciated....

Sad to say that she is not listed....

Neither is she....(don't be so picky...)

She is, however...

Her hobbies include swimmng, dancing, shopping using other peoples money and landmine identification....She handles herself in tense situations quite well and is proud of being able to say that she has been shot at numerous times during tense situations and has never been hit...She's a lucky gal, and any guy would be "lucky" to have her by his side, (whether for a walk in the park or diving for cover)...


As is this lovely lady....

This blushing bridal beauty is Claire. Her recently late father had the honor of being one of the last living French-Nazi Collaborators in the Vichy Regime and had himself and his family "transferred to Bongolesia" in the late 1940's, to "help out". When the last of the European Diplomats left, Claires family felt that "it was in their best interest to stay in their new adopted homeland and not return back to DeGaullist France"... Claire is sensitve and writes superb "goth" poetry, and loves music. Her favorite bands are "Air Supply", and "Wham!" She is looking for a "sensitive good natured man", that isn't wanted by Interpol, or anyone else, and is looking for a "deep caring woman" that will make him scream at night...
