Post by: moiterei_1984 on April 09, 2012, 04:46:39 PM
Hello,

as I posted some of my Dust-Tactics stuff here, I wanted to show you some of my 28mm Fallschirmjaeger for Victory Decision as well.

Here we go:

That is some awesome paintwork! 

I am about to start some FJ's for SoTR and was a bit intimidated before.  I'm still trying to work out a simple camo scheme I can do that will work across the force.   That squad is very inspirational, and I'll be saving those pics for reference.

Great work overall,

Looks like a very nice and balanced Kampfgruppe, not to mention a very skillfully painted one!

If I'm not completely misstaken they aren't playable yet... but it's only a matter of time though  :D

Ok, today there's some new stuff. I finally managed to complete my Opel Blitz with open canopy from Warlordgames. Since the basing rules for Victory Decision don`t really restrict me in size and shape of the bases I worked on a somehow diorama like base for a few days and here it is:

As there are now dismounting Fallschirmjaeger out there (at least I don't know a company making some), I decided to use the Panzergrenadiere from the 'Raus! Half Track and Dismounted Crew' set by Warlordgames for the dismounting crew.
