Bazookas Bust Pillboxes as well as Tanks

In the Island-Hopping Campaign having a bazooka on your team is a great help when dealing with Japanese pillboxes.
Even if you don't penetrate the walls on the first couple of shop, it still distracts the enemy gunners with the explosion, fragments and concussion.
These are 28mm plastic pieces I painted in March.

Blade-Bane of Vampires

Blade (aka Eric Cross Brooks & frank Blade) a dhampir so proficient with martial arts and swords that he is able to overcome and destroy vampires.
In fact the main goal of his life is to eliminate that hated class of undead from the face of the Earth.
His superhuman strength and abilities and his immunity to the bite of a vampire have been of great assistance in his never-ending combat against the "Blood Suckers of the Night."
Although he most often hunts alone, Blade has been known to join other hunters from time to time.
Even S.H.I.E.L.D. has used him to help them in several dangerous situations, both official and clandestine.
Blade is a plastic piece I painted in March.

Patience is a Snipers Hallmark

News from the front: Date line last month, somewhere in the South Pacific. Our on the location photographer has recently sent this action photo of a USMC sniper team in action. Armed with a Springfield 1906 rifle and assisted by his spotter, this sniper lay in wait for over an hour before he took out his enemy, a Japanese officer. 

There is no such thing as a successful impatient sniper. Not a long lived one that is.
For patience is the name of the game, wait for the perfect shot. Take it and silently move your location to set up your next kill.
These are 28mm plastic pieces that I painted in March.
