Big fan of the "what animal did Peachy accidentally paint on his palette today" mini series ❤

[@PeachyTips]

Hahaha! Tbh it’s getting weird….or I’m just odd….maybe both 😂👍

[@jamesb.7859]

Love this. Retired American Soldier here. I served with the 506th in the 101st Airborne Division during the global war on terror. The 101st has an annual reunion where we were able to meet the “Band of Brothers” veterans. I’ve also had the privilege of being able to visit Normandy, Bastogne, and Berchtesgaden. Heck I was wearing my Screaming Eagles t-shirt this morning. Thank you.

[@PeachyTips]

Oh wow! Well you have my utmost respect, and gratitude for your service, especially as an army brat of the 80’s with a dad who served. But also how amazing it must of been to see and speak to the Band of Brothers veterans.!

[@danspencer1281]

My favourite video I've seen covering bolt action and WW2. Very enjoyable and usual very informative.

[@PeachyTips]

Thanks, I really enjoyed painting this set up, looking to add more now….as is only right and proper

[@sirguy6678]

Great video! I am really enjoying seeing the many “Private Peach” throughout history - from private Peach fighting alongside Maj Sharpe to punching Naxis in 1945. Private Peach is the newest Black Adder ! 😂

[@PeachyTips]

I have many plans for Private Peach, and I certainly plan to find a way to stick him in a ww2 inspired battle report or two Though I argue more a baldric than Blackadder 😂

[@aztecjaguar6571]

Great video - remember those classic Airfix 1/32 scale plastic soldiers back in the 1970s.

[@andyphippen4733]

Love these bit of history/bit of chat/paint guide format videos! And +1 for Konflict 47!

[@trashkitten64]

I love that sponge snow effect, im going to have to try that

[@chappy4756]

Awesome! I come from a similar generation (52 yo) and same childhood experience - Longest Day and Bridge Too Far and Battle of Britain were annual events at home. Plus, too funny about the Quad Gun tractor and 25 pounder towed was a centerpiece of my army men, I had a metal die cast version, and the 25 pounder was spring loaded and you could shoot projectiles from it!

[@JimHurst-UK]

@@chappy4756 always wanted one of those 25 pounders.

[@JoCocomo]

Always had a love of history and especially for WW2, and like you my grandparents were a large part of it. My grandad on my mom's side was a KOYLI in North Africa and we have a handmade Christmas card, handmade leather wallet from Tunis, his service card for when he was a KOYLI and then Royal Engineer, and the biggest being his war diary. Its all minimally written but has some really cool interesting stuff, not limited to but including fighting Fallschemjagers in North Africa and being in a victory parade with Monty, General Alexander, and Churchill in Tunis. I too have a Bolt Action army, my Market Garden British Airborne with some tanks and artillery from XXX Corps. Been thinking about making a second army, and honestly I might go out the box and grab some Hungarians or Italians just to be out the box and different. I also helped a couple friends get in with one collecting Germans and the other Gurkhas, and by helped I mean I bought them the armies they wanted and assembled and painted up for them XD I just love assembling and painting models especially the historical ones

[@mattmurphy2194]

You've absolutely nailed the BoB aesthetic. Fantastic, inspiring work.

[@fatrhino]

Oh my god, content that isn’t 40k. I can’t wait to get a couple of boxes of these. Awesome job peachy!

[@burfscape1]

I love that you just are "I'll paint miniatures, ANY miniatures". For me, WW2 minis are too real, and recent, and the thought of "gaming" with them makes me uncomfortable. That said, I enjoyed this video, and really think the models are quite good. Makes me want to buy a box for kitbashing with some Imperial Guard for an interesting Kill Team. Whatever the case, whatever you're painting, following your tips can EASILY translate to other miniatures. And also, I LOVE that you are totally not pigeon holed to any game system, you'll paint anything! (as long as they're human! LOL) Another great video - thank you Peachy!❤

[@PeachyTips]

Thank you, I’m sure I’ll get around to painting some monsters and gribblies soon lol. Also in regards to WW2 being to recent for you and makes you uncomfortable, I totally understand that sentiment, for me anything from the late 70’s onwards s onwards feels like that, so the falklands onwards just feels weird, and I think that’s maybe down to the period when my dad was serving. So I do understand.

[@howaboutthishumidity]

Would love to see you do some Konflikt 47, Peachy! It's such a great setting, and Warlord seem to be giving it a lot of attention behind the scenes at the minute. It's also really easy to get into if you have an existing Bolt Action army, as all you need is to add, say, a unit of Werewolves to your German platoon, or a mech to your American platoon, and suddenly you have a Konflikt 47 army!

[@Orcimedes]

The video is right on time for 80th anniversary events for operation market garden. nice.

[@davidechiuchiu84]

What a timely video. Soon the box od The Last War is coming out, and snow warfare sounds ideal ❤

[@brianv769]

I am glad you did this video, I preordered the Battle of the Bulge starter set as soon as it was available. I actually wanted to do exactly what you are doing with your set, looking forward to doing this, and looking forward to seeing more Bolt Action content! Thanks!

[@AdamPriestleyWargaming]

Love the format of these videos, the chat and then the hobby. The photography is really impressive in this video, matches the brilliant paint jobs. Than you Peachy. 🍑

[@ahmokable]

Great video!!! More Boltaction!!

[@teessidetyrants1989]

Snow bases are cool Mr Peach? Beautiful. Let the Dad jokes flow. Great video. Thanks for making it.

[@jamescurtis2112]

I can see Paratrooper Peach making an appearance 👀 in an upcoming battle report...

[@PeachyTips]

Hahaha! He will indeed by ‘dropping in’ to lend a hand

[@jamescurtis2112]

What about a desendant of Sharpe to fight the werewolves... Silver Bayonet '47

[@PeachyTips]

@@jamescurtis2112now that’s a ’sterling’ idea…..I love this ❤

[@simonsaysmakepaintplay7248]

You are absolutely right the Quad, ammo trailer and 25pdr is absolutely the best alongside White scout car

[@PeachyTips]

😂👍 it really is a great looking vehicle, the scout car has M3 half track vibes too….also a great looking vehicle 😂

[@misomiso8228]

Content idea: I LOVED the Sharpe series...so how about a Band of Brothers style series where their figting Wermarcht unleashed monsters behind enemy lines in France! Another Sharpe would be great though as well!

[@PeachyTips]

I mean great minds think alike! I have plans to make band of brothers meets Wolfenstein

[@misomiso8228]

[@rikstewart7544]

Great video as ever Mr Peach. I was very lucky as a kid in the early '70s as one of my uncles worked in the Airfix factory that made the minis 😁 Great that you are continuing to feature non GW content. I love GW minis but also love minis in general and we really are spoilt for choice as collectors.

[@PeachyTips]

Wow that’s pretty cool to have had a family member work for such an iconic toy soldier company, and yes I love my GW stuff, but I love my Historicals and other flavours of Wargaming a lot too, so expect a nice broad spectrum

[@matthewandriaccio8961]

i did not expect G.I Peachy. Loving how these turned out and definitely using that sponge technique for the snow on the guys. Would love to see how you do whitewashed vehicles!

[@PeachyTips]

Thank you 😍👍 and I certainly plan to do a video or short on the white washing effect….tbf it’s a lot simpler than I expected.

[@Andy__H]

I’m really looking forward to BA3. The previews have been good. 💪

[@yousufkazmi7842]

That Teapot scene & the Wolfenstien comment, I'm just glad I wasn't drinking my coffee at the time, as I like my current keyboard ! Did remind me I need to build a T34 and an Avro Vulcan, both kits have been waiting 20+yrs... want to do the Vulcan right, as the last family member to build one did it at 1:1 in Chadderton.

[@PeachyTips]

😂👍 Must’ve been hard sticking that 1:1 Vulcan on the bedroom ceiling 🤣

[@Pork-Pie-Pete81]

This is brilliant. I too, love WW2 films. A favorite of mine is Kelly's heroes. I know you have a fair bit on, but please do these as a battle report.

[@PeachyTips]

I really really want to, got a few others to get out of the way, but yes it’s on the cards for sure bud

[@Pork-Pie-Pete81]

Thats great news. Looking forward to whats coming. Thanks Peachy ​@@PeachyTips

[@alexpattison6448]

Warlord do minis for Kelly, Oddballs Sherman and the Tiger at the end of the film, they are brilliant as well.

[@PeachyTips]

@@alexpattison6448oh yeah now we’re talking

[@aroncheek5092]

I wasn't into war films but I used to build ww1 and 2 aeroplanes, wasn't until my early teens that games workshop opened a shop in Hammersmith then I was into miniatures as well

[@Molten_Minis]

Loving the videos Peachy! I’d be really interested in seeing you tackle some Japanese for Bolt Action!

[@Andy__H]

Sounds like you need to look at Konflikt 47 as well Peachy. 😉

[@KimHarderFog]

OMG WWII and maybe upcoming "weird" WWII - Love it ! :D I really want to get that box, and do the americans as Band of Brothers as well, loved that series.

[@jacqueslandry2319]

Awesome Peach! Bolt action is one of my favorite games. Can't wait for third edition to come out and would love to see more BA content

[@scottcrompton6931]

Nice one! Very useful, thanks for it. Weird War 2?! Please do!

[@mwaythos]

I saw a WW2 MP40 next to a Sten in the Resistance museum in Limoges in France (which is well worth a visit) You can see why they could churn out zillions of Stens by comparison with the MP40s. One is a beautiful piece of craftsmanship. The other is a collection of old bully beef tins welded together.

[@JimHurst-UK]

Damn you Peachy... I promised myself no more Bolt Action armies (after the late war Germans, early war Germans, late war British and US airborne) and now... Got to say, I've always been a fan of the Morris C8 and a 25 Pounder.

[@PeachyTips]

Sorry for tempting you into more armies, and I love hearing about folks favourite vehicles ❤

[@S.C.D.]

Silver Bayonet WWII! 👻

[@DollaJames]

If you have some matte medium (or similar) I have found brushing that over the hydrophobic area helps and does not add any color

[@PeachyTips]

That’s a great shout, cheers for suggesting that 😍👍

[@PunchieCwg]

Great(coat) stuff as usual Peachy!

[@PeachyTips]

😂👍

[@hedgehog8943]

Really looking forward to getting the BA box, Ive dug out my old stuff and got to working on some stuff thats been hiding in the pile for a while now

[@PeachyTips]

Oh nice! I’m super excited and I know my bud Steve is too, so I expect a few battles will be fought with the stuff I did in the video

[@danfocke]

I would love a WWII game in the style of Silver Bayonet. Lots of good modeling opportunities there. Also, love the video, love the channel. Keep it up good sir!

[@PeachyTips]

Peach is definitely looking at creating some sort of battle rep using these models-he's spoilt for choice as to which system to use tho! Super glad you enjoyed the video and you're enjoying the channel, hope some of Peach's tips have helped, whether that's with painting, playing or just general entertainment 😆! Luv Mrs Peach 🍑

[@Runeinc]

This may sound odd, but I've found Holy White or Blinding Light Army Painter Speed Paints make a good wash for whites, gives an off white/very pale grey shade in the recesses.

[@mg1342mg]

Glad Warlord sponsored you; that's gotta give you some financial flexibility. What I like about this ruleset is the fitting brutality. I echo your love of the Quad; I had many captured ones in my FoW army.

[@JimmyTwitcher]

I know what you mean. Strange, as it may seem for an American kid, i've always been fascinated by the Bren carrier. Don't know why, I just think it's cool.

[@PeachyTips]

Also a great looking vehicle, still makes me giggle that the Perry’s owned one and used it as their weeding car 😂😂😂

[@James__V]

Great video Peachy! Love to see the WW2 content. I’m going to be at the warlord open day tomorrow and looking forward to checking this new edition out.

Great job peachy! Loooove the Americans especially. The Bulge is my favorite area of WW2 to watch videos/documentaries etc on, so I was pretty stoked about the new set. I’m on the German part of the video now now so forgive me if you talked about this and I haven’t gotten to it yet, but have you played V3? It’s pretty fun! Had one game myself so far - Boone
