Description
THESE MODELS (except my custom Order Dice) ARE UPLOADED WITH PERMISSION FROM THEIR ORIGINAL CREATORS IN A CORRECTLY SCALED 28MM FORM:
  • Lazyboy, who originally bought, imported, and arranged the infantry, crew, and base models from Polygon Blacksmith.
  • Baryonyx, who imported and arranged the vehicles and artillery pieces.
  • polyplant3d, creator of the chicken model (used in making Colonel Cluck): https://skfb.ly/6pywU
  • rajibkc, creator of the Ford GPW "Jeep" model: https://skfb.ly/6VqDK
  • TastyTony, creator of the M3 Grease Gun model (used in making Colonel Cluck): https://skfb.ly/69vUv

This mod is a collection of models that already exist on the Steam Workshop that have been correctly scaled to 1/56th (aka 28mm) scale, and is designed for use with Bolt Action and other WWII games in that scale. The smallest infantry bases are 1" in diameter, as required by the game, and the height of completely upright infantry is 28mm from their feet to their eyes.

Using correctly scaled models should result in more balanced and fun games. Having correctly scaled vehicles in particular is very handy.

Included are over 85 different infantry models, separated into Desert Rats, Army and Commandos, Airborne, and Australians, 15 artillery pieces (including variants) and a whopping 71 vehicles (including variants) with modelled crew where possible!

This mod serves as a 'remastering' of Lazyboy's work, with use of Baryonyx's extensive WWII vehicle and artillery catalogue. There are several changes and additions to this collection, which are listed as follows:
  • All weapons, vehicles, and other models are accurately scaled to 1/56 scale and named as accurately as possible.
  • The new combine tool makes copying infantry much easier, as they stick to their base, while also being better optimised.
  • Rotating anti-air guns that have their crew rotate with the gun.
  • Some vehicles (mostly open-topped vehicles) have British/Australian drivers, machine gunners, and other crew modelled and joined onto the vehicle for added flavour!
  • Artillery pieces have the correct number of crew for their matching army book entries.
  • Includes my correctly-numbered Bolt Action order dice!

Please let me know if any vehicles, weapons, or artillery seem wrongly-scaled - with so many things to keep track of, I may have made a mistake along the line. Do keep in mind that 28mm heroic figures always look slightly big next to 1/56 vehicles (Polygon Blacksmith's models are similar in proportion and style to Warlord's real-life Bolt Action range, so this was done to fit in with the 'original' as it were).

Once again, thank you for your support and encouragement! It's been a pleasure making these packages for public use!

It depends on if I can get access to suitable models for them - I have a handful of French models which I will be experimenting with, however

Robot i play often with you models, Barys models are more detailed but your models are static that is better for boltaction

I like how you put crew into the vehicles where they would be visible, good job!
