A Quick Painting Desk Post

 Due to recent Blogger issues, I have not been as motivated to post - in case it did not appear, or was so delayed, that only a small number of people saw it and commented! 

On the basis that my last post seemed to become visible within a minute or two, here is another one. I have been painting recently, so I have a few PBJ posts to do!


The recently arrived 3D printed Katyusha MLRS with Bad Squiddo scouts for size reference 



The Katyusha was a Soviet truck‑mounted multiple‑rocket launcher used from 1941 onward, designed to deliver large, fast salvos of unguided rockets for shock, area‑saturation bombardment rather than precision. Its most common form, the BM‑13, fired 132 mm rockets from rails mounted on trucks like the ZIS‑6 or Studebaker. Katyushas were cheap, easy to produce, highly mobile, and could fire and relocate within seconds, making them hard to counter. Their terrifying howling sound earned them the German nickname “Stalin’s Organ.”


A simple paint job of Tamiya aerosol spray paint then painted tyres and the rockets with a brush, then a bit of simple dry brushing for mud and dust etc.


Some spare Warlord tank decals were applied to the doors



That's all for this post - I will probably do the next update in a couple of days' time, so until then, thanks for all your comments!
