Title: Stalingrad-Warzaw-Berlin
Post by: traveller on November 05, 2018, 06:57:12 PM: When my son showed an interest for WW2 I had to put my Fall of Acre project on the shelf and fastforward 650 years! The plan is to make a combo of Stalingrad 1943, Warzaw uprising 1944 and Berlin 1945. They all have a common denominator....ruins! I have enough of them for a city game so now its all down to the lead. There are quite a few ”exotic” units in these battles that I aim to cover: Volkssturm, HJ, Naval infantry(Soviet in Stalingrad and German in Berlin), Police units, Cossacks(Both sides), Polish Home Army, Kaminski RONA, Dirlewanger SS. I have started by converting some German police so here are a few test photos:

pay attention as this is a German forum, so swastika is forbidden.

Yes, I also thought so. On a UK server I assume?

Post by: Captain Blood on November 09, 2018, 07:34:32 AM: Yes, the forum is now hosted in the UK, so the ‘no Nazi symbols’ rule is no longer in force (provided they’re only visible in a wargaming / modelling context).

But thank you Marco, for your attention to the matter. We can now relax a bit about it though :)

The police look great.

Even a stopped clock is right twice a day - as my grandfather often reminded me ;D

Good to know... been wanting to see about making a couple of 28mm police myself.
