About the Project

During 2025 I’ll be getting started with Bolt Action V3. I picked up the Battle of the Bulge starter set over Christmas and this project will track my progress building and painting the models from the box.

Winter farmhouse

Decided to have a go at the classic Warlord farmhouse that comes in the box.

I used some foam board for the bases, coffee stirrers for the floor boards, some bricks and match sticks for  extra rubble and a lot of hot glue.

This was my first time using the AK Interactives snow effect.  Really easy to use product, but I think I need to master the best way of applying it to get a more natural look.

Some photos of the process below…

Finally an update!

Managed to put together the M8 Greyhound.  Bit of a pain of a kit to put together, but nice model.

Six wheels and a 37mm gun, should make this a fun vehicle on the table.

So I’ve made a start on the box set and decided to begin with building the US infantry in their winter uniforms.

These are the nicest Warlord miniatures that I’ve ever put together. Realistic poses and great detail, hardly any mold lines to clean up!

I decided to build a 3 man HQ team, bazooka team, sniper team, a medic, and 2 squads of 8 men (NCO with a submachine gun and 1 BAR).

Up next will likely be the armoured car to go with these fellas.

My first project for the new year will be working on the new Battle of the Bulge starter set for Bolt Action V3!

This thread will track my progress as a I build and paint the contents of the box and likely add some additions further down the line.
