Winter DUSTup scenario - some WIP pics

It's been a long, cold winter, but coming out of the fog (and my basement, which I call "The Island of Misfit Toys"), is this DUST project that's been waiting to get on the game board for years!
In a few more weeks a first game will get presented at our local games day, but I couldn't wait to see a little of how the walkers in the trees would look together, as they move forward to slug it out in a counterattack into the Siegfried Line....
So getting closer to the finish line (for this first action) - a Festung with Laser Kanone model still to complete for the scenario yet, but that's already on the paint line.

Walking tanks? What's not to like?
Well worth the effort and the wait

You guys nailed it!
My only regret was not jumping on this project earlier.

Bunker/Strongpoint finished, and this was lots of fun painting up (since I only needed one).

The “off the grid” version of the rules are great, especially for big games. I got a ton when Fantasy Flight dumped them 75% off.

Thanks Guys, all of you!
I'm hoping to approach this project using the platoon organizations from the DUST editions, and plan to play the games as much like other WW2 scenarios I've designed/hosted over the years, but of course now with the wild weapons and machinery of
VK-1947
.
I'll see how well my traditional-minded gaming buds take to this, but since I'm doing it at a popular local hobby shop for our once-a-month games day, perhaps I'll draw from onlookers if more attendance is needed.
Planning on posting some pics from the 1st game next weekend here, and thanks again for your replies and support!
Dave

Thanks S_P!
Here's the battle mat I'll be using for the DUSTup here (it'll be a 5ft. X 7ft. vinyl mat I'm having printed up, using a modified image version from a map texture I bought off of Wargames Vault many winters ago - here in low res) -
Although I can't put hills underneath it to create elevations like on a fabric or fur mat, having the details ready to roll out and play for a game day, works great for our public presentations (it'll be used again at a local con this summer too).
Now, I just better get delivery in time from my print shop for the game!

The vinyl mat has arrived well on time, and I just had to see what some of the minis would look like on it trudging through the snow.
Here an SSU Steel Guard Platoon advances -
