Hello everyone and welcome back to the channel and a video that has been inspired from a few posts that I have seen recently in the Bolt Action Facebook group. With Warlord Games now having quite a few plastc kits for the British Army range, quite a few people are now taking the opportunity to kitbash new and unique sections.
One of the main questions that I have seen is will the different kits work together? I have worked on many of these kits over the past year or so and it is a resounding yes that these kits will work together.
I thought it would be a good idea to make a short video showing some examples of what I have been able to create using the various plastic kits that are available. Hopefully this will be useful in showing how well these kits go together and some of the realluy awesome looking and unqiue figures you can make.

Your videos are always inspiration for the infinite possiblies in 28mm plastics!

Cheers Joe, very kind of you buddy! I just think that with so many multi-part plastic kits available there is now so much scope for making really interesting and unique models. For me this year, combining parts from the Dead Man's Hand gunfighter box on Bolt Action kitbashing really demonstrated this. Plastic kits made by two different companies and they combined really well 😀

Kitbashed me a Canadian radioman with a respirator bag and cutting off the action and barrel of a webley, gotta say it looks pretty good for my first kitbash ever. Gotta work on it but its nice.

@OnPointHQ 2 месяца назад

That sounds like a cracking kitbash! With conversions and kitbashing, I've found that it's all about experimenting and seeing what works and what doesn't. Soon you'll remember which kits and parts work for certain projects. The best thing is that you'll have very unique and individual miniatures that nobody will have in their armies 😃👍

Awesome airbornes!! ❤

@OnPointHQ Год назад

Thank you! I really enjoyed building and painting the Airborne 😀

@thepiratepenguin4465 Год назад

Wow, this is so cool. I can make plastic Aussie with this method.

@OnPointHQ Год назад

Hopefully it demonstrates just how versatile Warlord Games' plastic kits are. I think you can definitely make plastic Australians with these kits 😀

@lesliebeilby-tipping6854 2 года назад

Agreed Ste, Perrys and Black Powder all do match for the bits, arms, weapons etc. You can also add in in metal weapons as well.

@OnPointHQ 2 года назад

Cheers Leslie. I've said it before but kitbashing and combining different kits is definitely one of my favourite parts of the hobby and always will be. Having a figure or section completely unique to you is always the inspiration to try new and different things 🙂

@TheEccentricMan 2 года назад

Nice little video on what can be done. I'll put a link to your channel when I put up an update video on my Sicily Canadians project..

@OnPointHQ 2 года назад

Cheers Ken, that'd be great. I knew were were planning a kitbashing project with your Canadians so it will be really interesting to see how you've been getting on 🙂

Last Burma figure looks like Michael Caine in too late for the heroes

@OnPointHQ 2 месяца назад

Now there's a film that I've not seen for a very long time! I may have to go back and catch up 😃👍

@watchdogwargaming 2 года назад

Great ideas !!

@OnPointHQ 2 года назад

Thank you,I'm glad you enjoyed the video! I'm hoping that it showed just how versatile the different kits are and how they can be used together. Still definitely one of my favourite parts of the hobby 😃

@josephvanuxem9671 2 месяца назад

Awesome

@OnPointHQ 2 месяца назад

Thanks Joseph, much appreciated! I absolutely love the versatility of the Warlord Games plastic kits and hopefully this video shows just how many combinations can be made 😃👍

@smoothbrush4722 2 года назад

Very nice kitbashing on this minies, a pleasure to watch.

@OnPointHQ 2 года назад

Thanks Lucian, much appreciated. Hopefully I showed that with just a few simple arm swaps that these kits can produce some really individual looking models 🙂

@worldhistoryminiatureshous9757 2 года назад

Awesome British troops . Great painting was done with them . Congrats !

@OnPointHQ 2 года назад

Thank you, much appreciated! Ive always enjoyed working on these kitbashed British projects. The Airborne especially were a lot of fun 🙂

@lexi_9995 2 года назад

Kitbashing is great fun and can produce outstanding results, well done and thank you. Regards Lexi

@OnPointHQ 2 года назад

Thanks Lexi and I definitely agree with you there! Kitbashing remains one of my favourite parts of the hobby as it really does allow you to make some really unique and individual figures, units and ultimately armies 😀

@kitchenwargamers4141 2 года назад

Wow these look fantastic. Its been great following you on this kitbashing project on Facebook, Instagram and plastic crack podcast 😁👍

@OnPointHQ 2 года назад

Cheers Marc, very kind of you! Looking back through these kitbashes has definitely reignited my interest in getting my Burma project back on track 🙂

@MiniatureRealms 2 года назад

Love all of these mate.

@OnPointHQ 2 года назад

Thanks Stu! Hopefully the video demonstrated just how versatile the plastci British kits from Warlord are. I have plans for a project next year using the Commando box set as I am pretty sure that will allow me to come up with some really unique and creative pieces 😀

@philRminiatures 2 года назад

Superb figures, I especially like the Bren Carrier's crew and the courageous wounded riflemen...👌👍

@OnPointHQ 2 года назад

Thanks Phil! I really enjoyed working on the Bren Carrier crew. It took a while to get the poses that I wanted but it was worthwhile. Only for left to finish 😃

@christopherstaerck1112 Год назад

I completely agree / the Bren crews are phenomenal. Do you mind me asking what leg/torso combination you used to get them in to the Bren carrier please? Any inspiration you can share with me would be gratefully received. PS - I’ve hit the “subscribe” as I really like what you do! Thanks for sharing it. Cheers

@lionheart3916 2 года назад

Fantastic kit bashing ste I will take a lot of inspiration from your Burma stuff as I will be starting a British army in Burma project soon

@OnPointHQ 2 года назад

Cheers mate! I've really enjoyed my Burma stuff so far although I have been distracted with other things recently. The Bren Carriers were a lot of fun to work on 🙂

@jamesfirth-haydon7381 2 года назад

Such a great lot of kit bashing there Ste. I’m looking forward to picking up a box of Italians at Salute this weekend. I mean, I might finish off my British Infantry, 8th Army, US Infantry, Afrika Korps first though. 😂😂😂😂😂. Who am I kidding!!

@OnPointHQ 2 года назад

Cheers James! They were all a lot of fun to put together. Ahh the Italians look really nice, I'm sure you'll enjoy working on those. My plan is for a Western Desert themed Italian army but that is many months away. Yes, this is definitely the gamer's curse, too mad projects, enough time. Enjoy Salute! Dom and Martin will be there so keep an eye out for them 😃

@TheGreatMim 2 года назад

Brilliant, love these videos, very inspirational

@OnPointHQ 2 года назад

That's awesome, cheers Chris! Glad you find them helpful. Hopefully the video showed just how versatile the different British kits are and that its pretty simple to make some really unique figures 🙂

@johnclarke9498 2 года назад

You still got it Stev 👌👍

@OnPointHQ 2 года назад

Cheers John! It's been a while since I posted anything Bolt Action related so it was good revisiting these miniatures. Planning some more work on the Burma project so hopefully a few updates soon 😀

@wingeddaggeradder 2 года назад

These Are The Best Painted Miniatures I’ve Seen.. Do You Do Painting Videos ?? Keep Up The Great Work My Regards Mike Robertson..

@OnPointHQ 2 года назад

That's awesome thanks Mike, very kind of you! I have made the occasion painting video but nothing in the way of a tutorial type of video or where I paint live,no. I can be quite a messy painter or cut a few corners so not exactly the type of videos people want to see! But if there is anything specific, just let me know 😀

@hamsteronthepaintingtable6465 2 года назад

Nice work Ste 👍🏻

@OnPointHQ 2 года назад

Cheers buddy, much appreciated! Always enjoy a bit of kitbashing and these British kits are all excellent 🙂

@BrushQuill 2 года назад

Interesting video Ste. Do you buy the kits with some builds in your mind already (e.g use that arm with that body), or do you just add to the kitbash stash?

@OnPointHQ 2 года назад

Cheers Cal. I'll often do a bit of research and have a look at the individual bits and pieces on the sprues but most of the time I get the kits and just see what I can come up with. I always have some arms in the bits boxes that I know will work with most kits so I always have those in mind too 🙂

@giuseppe196424 Месяц назад

Any tip for chindits?

@OnPointHQ Месяц назад

I know a few people have used the British Infantry bodies, the short-sleeved arms from the 8th Army box and the Australian hats from the Commonwealth box to make Chindits. I think they would look a bit too neat and uniform. Definitely one I'll need to look at one day 😃👍

@porgstew3657 Год назад

Can you do some desert rats or point me tward a past video because I cant seem to find any from you?

@OnPointHQ Год назад

I have a couple of videos in the Bolt Action playlist about my desert SAS. Not quite Desert Rats but they are pretty close looking 😀👍

@paulwestern3687 2 года назад

How would you be able to get one 303 type, with the two kits?

@OnPointHQ 2 года назад

Hey Paul, the 303s are largely the same across both kits but have different style bayonets. The 8th Army have the longer slimmer bayonet while the British infantry box has the shorter style 🙂

@paulwestern3687 2 года назад

Cool, I am rying to make kiwis summer 44 with shorts n smle Mk5 rifles?... Thankyou

@gwin2719 2 года назад

@@paulwestern3687 I don’t think there are any plastic jungle carbines, you’d probably be best using the number fours out of the new britIsh and Canadian set
