STORM EAGLE SPOTTED!

Wow, I just got the email from a buddy (thanks Gordon!) and this models is HOT! After looking at it for a while, I approve. No idea when it will be out but, you can bet I will be getting at least one.




However, lately I have been working on some American Armor via the 4th A.D. I have more Shermans on the table then I will need but, you can't go wrong with tanks. At the shop, we have been playing a Tank Aces Campaign out of the new Blood, Guts and Glory book from Battlefront Miniatures. So far, it has been a blast an the 4th AD is taking lots of names. I will grab some WIP pics in the next few days and toss em up.
