Hello you amazing bunch! Guy here. We're often asked to cover historical wargames but in the back of our minds, there's always this nagging feeling that there's something... Not quite right about the whole thing. In this video, Hatty and I try to explain what we mean, while painting the most popular US and German tanks from the 2nd World War.

Let us know what you think about the whole thing, do you have similar issues, or are we just reading way too much into it?
