Stalingrad-Warzaw-Berlin
« 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:

Hi Traveller,

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

Yes, the forum is now hosted in the UK, so the ‘no Nazi symbols’ rule is no longer in force (provided they’re only visible in a wargaming / modelling context).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.

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