Title: 4th platoon of Polish R-35 tanks and new objectives
Post by: Anatoli on July 11, 2013, 10:33:59 AM

I painted up my 4th and last platoon of R-35 tanks which I picked up over at Peter Pig at Salute earlier this year. This means that my R-35 company from the 21st Light Tank Battalion is complete.
You can see more pics of them and the full company over at my blog here:

I also made two new objective markers, printed out the "Poland first to fight" propaganda poster and painted over it with Vallejo paints. More pictures and info about that can be seen here:

Nice!  8)

I especially like what you did with the markers; simple, yet elegant and evocative...

Are these the tanks of the Polish Army in France of 1940 then?

No, these are the R-35's that were part of the 21st light tank battalion in Poland. It had some 49 tanks.
