28mm Bolt Action Japanese Banzai

 Here are some more Japanese Warlord Figures in action...for our Tarawa Game 

(you can see our full video by clicking here... )

I have already built the standard pack  (and we have two other packets incl. the Jap marines) and so we wanted something a little different from these figures. .

So this figure is actually an American head on an Imperial Japanese body...with a explosive pack. The other is a Russian head on an Imperial body.

Charge!


I also thought a command post/section would come in handy

Did a an American Marine in combat with a Japanese guy - just to get some other poses for both models -  
I just got fed up with the ordinary Japanese Imperial Army builds.

I also tried to do a Japanese pilot from green stuff, arms, head and legs, parachute and goggles. 
I tried to get the flight suit and harness look. Warlord please sculp some pilots for us!!.

Type 98 Shi-Ke Artillery Tractor

                           I 3d printed this and then just added some boxes and then printed a sign for Ammo. The guys are just extra parts and green stuff.

3d printed a  Soko Sagyo Ki (SS-Ki) 

Its an engineering vehicle with three flamethrowers and HMG.

As i get to the end of the Jap figures - I wanted to use them slightly differently.. So I did an ammo dump with some guys unloading/moving crates..

But storage of this piece will be murder as its fragile

I also started to use up some of the Japanese spare parts for trenches etc.

With some trench damage markers...




I also printed some Kurogane Type 95 transport from Thingyverse.

    1. Thanks RRoss I just got fed up with the standard poses in the Warlord packs from both of their sets....but great to know its good enough. I have now painted about 6 packs (3 for myself) and i thought "I need to just try something else with the figures" !.Anyway... this is the result. The pilot was just for a laugh!

  2. Hey GW- your pacific war collection must be spectacular by now and very bespoke. No rows of similar figures- they must all be different. Great Stuff!

    1. Hi John yes you just need to create some either different poses with the green stuff or use the existing figure in a different way - I just like the volume of the large battles. Glad you like it. Now I just need some space to store it all ! LOL
