If you're just getting into painting miniatures or haven't tackled historical subjects in the past, the Bolt Action starter box is an excellent place to begin - German and American forces for the late war period, could you get any more iconic?

When you're painting an army for the first time, it's worth concentrating on the simple stuff to begin with. Any time you're moving paint around, you're learning, and any opportunity to use a couple of different paint manufacturers will likewise teach you about the different consistencies and coverages across ranges and colours. Everything is experience! Once you've got the basics down and have an army on the table with flat colours and a wash over them, you can choose whether or not to add more detail later, but even a very simple paintjob will vastly improve the look of your games.

Im supremely glad I actually recorded this method as I was painting or I wouldnt have believed the result, myself. Its not the fastest way, for sure, but its easy enough and the end result has some really interesting colour modulation which makes it interesting to look at.
I accidentally painted maybe the nicest army style Salamander Ive ever done entirely without meaning to. Whoops!

Whether youre looking to whip up border conflicts between fictional Soviet satellite states or to wargame the unthinkable outbreak of the Cold War, Motostrelki are the uncounted masses of infantry youll need for any ground force invasion. Luckily, its easy to get a surprisingly decent result without much work at all, using a few paints that cover remarkably well to keep brush time to a minimum!
Thanks again go to Steffan for letting me get my grubby mitts on the STLs for the core platoon from the Zapad 1 Kickstarter, which is still live for a couple days from when this is uploaded.

Steffan suggests the BattlegroundHD rules set, though No End in Sight from Nordic Weasel Games would be a late-20th Century set of rules Im familiar with which would work in this scale.

Early WWII French uniforms have a reputation for being a little tricky to paint. Not any more! With surprisingly few paints on the table youll be able to knock out a French army fast; this took me about the third of the time itd ordinarily take me to paint a French infantryman. Does it look like it? Well, get up close and squint... but paint an army like this and theyll look just fine on the table, beating out grey plastic - thats for sure!

Exercise REFORGER - REturn of FORces to GERmany - was a test of precisely how and how quickly NATO troops could return in strength to West Germany during the Cold War. An annual exercise, it ran from 1967 to 1993 once NATO commanders were satisfied the threat of a breakaway faction of the former Soviet Union didnt still have its eyes on western Europe.
Check out REFORGER 1 from Flank March miniatures on Kickstarter here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/flankmarch/reforger-1-cold-war-us-army-infantry
The BDUs - battle dress uniforms - work by US troops during this period were iconic for almost thirty years, issued between 1981 to 2006 and seeing continued use in ancillary branches for years afterward as well. Sent to US-aligned military and security forces worldwide, the humble BDU uniform can theoretically work for almost any modern military, mercenary, or post-apocalyptic survivors you want to put on the table!
