About the Project
This project will follow my progress into 15mm Eastern Front wargaming. I will be building at least 2 armies, a Soviet and a German one and all the terrain I need to play. I am focussing on the latter half of 1942 so around the battle of Stalingrad, but not on Stalingrad itself.

Basing Test
The bases for this I will prime before I stick anything to it. I will paint each figure separately and then glue it to the primed base, but after that I am going to have to figure out what I am going to do. So here is a basing test. I started with a simple coat of AK Interactive Diorama Terrains Muddy Ground (AK8017).
I mixed a bit of GreenStuff World Realistic Model Snow Powder with a bit of PVA and water in 2 different ratios to see what they will look like and then prepped 2 more bases in the same way as I did before.
What is this project?
I have always had an interest in WWII and for some reason I have never actually done anything with it on the tabletop, so this will be it.
This project will follow my progress into Flames of War Eastern Front. I will be building 2 armies, 1 Soviet and 1 German set around the battle of Stalingrad. So late 1942, early 1943. This will be my first foray into 15mm wargaming and I will also need to build scenery and everything for this project.
To start off with I have ordered the Stalingrad 2 player starter set plus a couple of extras.
And while I would like to make a polka dot army, I am also really interested in the historical side of things and haven’t as of yet found any credible historical references that they painted their tanks like this or even had the time to do so around the battle of Stalingrad.
