Bolt Action: Imperial Japanese Army - Infantry I

Well then, my first squad for my Japanese army has been completed, the assembly of it was quite nice, the one thing that I didn't quite like was that you have a limited option when it comes to posing. Most arms comes attached to the guns, and you can't really mix them up as much as the modeller in me would like. But the upside is that they come together quickly, and there is only small areas of flash. Almost to small to even care about, I think I've missed more than a few spots when I put them together =)


Anyhow I got my first squad assembled and painted. almost before I realised what was happening.

And here they are;

I decided to at first at least follow the "recommended" army structure in the 1000p force, so I've made the first unit 10 man strong, and not the more historical correct 14 men. But I'm thinking of adding a few more to get the unit numbers up a bit when I have my fist few squads done.

Painting wise I went for a little middle way so I have kind of followed how they looked, but simplified a few things, and also gone with the colours I already have . I'm not going to get another kind of olive green just for a bag =)

Other than that I'm a bit interested in getting to the tank in the box, but more on that when I get some paint on it.
