Check out this new release from GCmini.com. This is a 28mm (1/56th) scale Tudor style house that's been hit by a bomb or two. This model is perfect for any WWII wargame such as Bolt Action.

Model features removable upper floor and removable roof/attic section making the model very easy to get troops inside and back out again.

Model measures aprox 5" x 5" x 8" tall (127mm x 127mm x 203mm tall)

Kit is made from laser cut MDF. Having the half timber details as separate parts makes assembly and finishing very simple, just build the main MDF structure and paint it your choice of color (no need to even fill the seams, the half timber details will hide them) and then glue on the half timber pieces (painted or not). You can have a fantastic looking building in minutes.

This model is kit number 28MMDF620 and is available now at GCmini.com

We've got another 20 releases in our 20th Century ranges!

Firstly, we're continuing to revamp some of our older WWII models and next up is the British Cruiser series and the German Panzer IV's.  On the Cruiser side we've replaced the original A9, A10 and A13's, as well as adding another 5 variants as well.  For the Panzer IV's it's a straight swap of new for old, as well as the StuG IV and the Brummbar as well.  Moving forward we'll be replacing the Nashorn, Hummel, Mobelwagen, Wirbelwind and Ostwind.  Also for the Germans we've revamped the Jagdpanther IV L70 and also added a new Tiger I with zimmerit.

We've got a quick addition to the American range as well, with some Sherman field armour pieces available in the Misc section.

And finally we've added the Panhard AML 60 to our Modern vehicles range.

Baccus 6mm – New WW2 Artillery

New Releases - WW2 Artillery and our first tank!

Another week, another set of releases and this time it's a subject that has generated more correspondence, questions, demands and the odd threat than any other I can think of.   Yes, we've got the very first of our WW2 artillery models and the first of our projected line of vehicles.

The British kick off the party with a 6pdr and the ever-popular 25pdr;

And the Germans get the 88mm Flak shown earlier, a PAK40 and a 10.5 cm leFH 18:

Also in this bumper fun package comes the very first model in our planned range of vehicles for the period.  We're starting with the ever-popular Sherman MK1.

As you can see from these pictures, the detailing and proportion on the straight line models is outstanding.  That's because all of the patterns are designed using 3D modelling techniques rather than the traditional method of hand-built masters.  This enables us to produce finished models that remain consistent in scale and proportion.  It enables us to add wonderful levels of detail.    Above all, it now means that you get the very best in straight line models allied to consistently sized and well modelled and detailed infantry and crew.   A combination that has been sorely lacking over the years.  Finally there are all at very competitive prices, especially considering the quality of the end result.

You can find out more details if you click here.

I know that there's lots of you now wondering where the assorted Cromwells, PZIVs, Jeeps, Half tracks etc. are.   Well, the answer is that they are in various stages of production.  We'll shortly have another batch of models to go through the process, so all I can ask for is patience.    As many of you will know, once we start a project we keep going with it.

The best, as they say, is yet to come...
