10mm World War II Project

My 10mm World War II Project will be based around the invasion of the Soviet Union from operation Barbarossa till the fall of Berlin as I complete the German and Russian forces I was slowly expand into other areas of World War II (WWII). 




The rules I will be using are Rapid Fire.

The core of the army will be built using Pendraken Miniatures other manufacturers which I intend using are Magister Militum. The buildings which I intend using are from various manufacturers Pendraken, JR Miniatures buildings sold by Magister Militum, Fieldworks and TimeCast.

A new member (Ade) who joined the Grimsby Wargaming Society has become an extremely good friend of mine, and turns out to be an excellent sculptor so I've been very lucky in having a few pieces sculpted especially for me. 

And yes for all those interested he will be opening his own website.
