Memorial Day 2015
Well, it's Memorial day and I was hoping to get some work done on some modeling projects, but regular life got in the way. I was able to take in some war films in a War movie Marathon on Antenna TVwhile working on bills and paper work.
The first film I caught was "Castle Keep"
I really Liked this film!
INDB info: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0064137/
Then I saw just some of "Beach Red"
INDB info: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0061389/
I was able to see 3/4 of Anzio
INDB info: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0062673/
And finally I watched all of "The Bridge at Remagen"
INDB info: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0064110/

Merry X-mas from Tank Taco
It was a good Xmas. My son received a HO scale train that has been running in circle all Christmas long. He gave me a Tank from the local drug store (CVS) as a gift that turned out to be a Panzer IV, which turned out to be the same tank that I had just bought a Osprey Publication as a gift to my self. It's a Xmas miracle!
Another Christmas miracle was getting some free time to put on test coat of Army Painter Quick Shade (Medium). It was a make or break moment for the future of me in this hobby, since my last attempt at shading with varnish was a horrible flop (the horror). But as I brushed on Quick Shade on to the only painted 15mm & 1/72 I had, which I had toiled over for far too long, and as the room was filled with the smell of turpentine cleaner & my sole was filled with the Xmas spirit, a Miracle happened once more, with the successful QuickShading of the figures, and thus an extension of my hobby pursuits into the future.
