Das Germans! Again!

Finished a few Germans off that have been sitting on my work table, about 30 more to go! That does not include the Fins and DeGaul! Gah! Or the vehicles! Oh dear, the pain...the pain....

Warlord Partisan I am using...

I rather like the Hitler stash I painted on him.

Another figure done!

A few random figures done!

Well, done for now...I may go back and add some more greenery later but for now they are ready for the table! Many of these have been done for weeks but I have been lax in taking and posting photos.

French Artillery Crew or Observer for Mortar or Artillery.

Second LMG team.

Hitler Youth

Volkstrum

More Volkstrum and one girl wearing a League of Girls Uniform

More Volkstrum

Yikes! I have a lot!

Hitler Youth

More Hitler Youth!

another angle

Volkstrum fall in!

Hilter Youth defends their home!

Overall, these have been a blast to paint as each figure Volkstrum and Hitler Youth were all to me individual models with lots of character. I tried to vary my colors and yet keep a theme to them of a rag tag last Levy defenders. I am looking forward to throwing these children, old, infirm, women, injured soldiers and misfits that could not qualify for military service to the battlefield to test their mettle!

Blitzkreig Miniatures: Flamingo Tank Review

Got this for my birthday by my friend Chris and wow what a great model! He had bought some of Blitzkreig's vehicles prior but this is my first experience and I have to say it was stellar!

I would recommend Blitzkreig Miniatures to anyone if you are having a problem finding that tank or you want a high quality tank at a reasonable price. The only suck part is shipping overseas for the most part which is a long wait.

Now I just need it to stop being HUMID and RAINING every flipping day so I can primer!

The tank. Solid kit with the tracks and body as one part. Turret, barrel, two flamethrower turrets and a hatch top. Not many parts. My friend and I had ours together in an hour roughly.

Shot of the parts.

The only flash on the model really. Just above the tracks.

All parts together.

New stuff! More Bolt Action

Another set of packages arrived today, one was a missing item from my prior order that didn't make it into the box! Great job Warlord, they caught the error and shipped it right off!

The loot!

SOVIET KOMSOMOLETS ARMOURED ARTILLERY TRACTOR

Wrecked Hanomag (showing various angles to see the detail!)




Need I say more? Just fucking cool!

What is this? Instructions?


Core to the kit is a plastic Hanomag 251

If you never saw the plastics before. This is my first one, my other was metal and resin.

Resin and metal parts. The detail of the wagon!

Perhaps one of the best boxes yet!

Not much detail on the website draws attention here...this is important!

TWO HUGE BLISTERS INSIDE!

The heads...yes SHS!

Amazing!

Interesting character features in the faces!

Details of the bodies for the Volkstrum










What is this? Bases? Yea, Sarissa ones!

Krummlauf Assault Rifle....a very nice model.

League of Girls Medic! She is small also!

Hitler Youth...and more!





Political Officer

Luftfausts

Hitler Youth against adults...scaling is well done!
