Having given the ruins from the JagdPanther boxed set a repaint using Citadel Base: Mechanicus Standard Grey, the next stage was some drybrushing to bring out the detail.
This now (to me) looks much better than it did before.

Prussian Empire Blucher Class Dreadnought
Here are some shots of my finished Prussian Empire Blucher Class Dreadnought in “water”.
I used some full colour print outs of water textures, printed on glossy photo paper using a standard home inkjet printer.
The scenery is from Snapdragon Studios and is an 1/300th SF Bunker, but seems to fit in quite well.

15mm Ruined Row of Three Houses
Having painted the roof tiles, I gave the remaining unapinted walls a basecoat of Citadel Base: Zandri Dust.
After painting the window sills and the drainpipes, as well as the debris, the next stage will be a dark wash.
Painting the Decks
After giving the models in the Kingdom of Britannia Naval Battle Group their basecoat, I painted the decks of the battleship and the cruisers. For the decks I used Citadel Base: Zandri Dust.
I also painted the decks of the Tribal Class Cruisers.
I decided not to paint the decks of the frigates as I found the process too fiddly.

Repainting the Ruins
Having decided I wasn’t happy with my progress so far with the ruins from the JagdPanther box, I took the decision to repaint most of it.
I used Citadel Base: Mechanicus Standard Grey to give the model a basecoat of dark grey.
However I kept the floor as is.
Basecoating the Naval Battle Group
After undercoating the models from the Dystopian Wars Kingdom of Britannia Naval Battle Group were given a basecoat of Citadel Base: Mechanicus Standard Grey.
Here is the Ruler Class Battleship.
It was quite challenging to paint within the superstructure.
Side view of the Ruler Class Battleship. It was mounted on an old blister pack.
The three Tribal Class Cruisers also got the same basecoat. I mounted these on paint pots.
So did the Attacker Class Frigates.
Lots of detail for such small models.
Next stage will be the decking.
Victorian SF Tunnelling Machine
I painted the wooden hull, with Flat Earth (983). I am trying to get a polished teak effect.
I will now paint the metal bands around the hull, before giving the “teak” a wash.
Bolt Action Partisans
I started painting my Bolt Action Partisans using Vallejo Flat Earth (983).
Still some way to go…
Dystopian Wars Airfield Set
Having given the resin models in the Dystopian Wars Airfield Set a basecoat, the next stages were undertaken.
I mixed some of the Vallejo German Dark Camo (979) with Vallejo Ivory (918) and drybrushed the hangars.
The Airship Towers were given a wash with Citadel Shade: Nuln Oil.
After that was dry, I gave them a drybrush of the original grey.
The Radar Tower was also given a wash with Citadel Shade: Nuln Oil.
The radar itself got a base coat of Citadel Base: Warplock Bronze.

Dystopian Wars: Kingdom of Britannia Flyers
Within the box Kingdom of Britannia Naval Battle Group
They look like biplanes, but have elements of 1940 era fighters.
Not quite sure how I am going to paint them at this time.
In the box you also get two Doncaster Class Bombers.
I am not a fan of these models, or even the concept. They look like flying boats, but aren’t.
