Bolt Action Compendium Review

How to paint Bolt Action Chindits

World War II miniatures have the bad habit of ending up us brown models on a brown table.

New Painting Guide up on the site (link in bio) - colors used and steps for the lovely BEF from @wargamesatlantic. Big shout-out to @sonicsledgehammer and @chrishindmarsh for the inspiration! Handful of photos from the 4 Star Open 2025 - The Final Star hosted at the world-famous @dicedojo in Chicago. Still need to figure out the basing but the first of the BEF infantry is complete! Many more BEF on the way for Bolt Action Doubles at @adepticon 2026.
