Also usable as Freikorps if you want to play on after the end of WW1

Very nice indeed.

Mein gott das ist wunderbar! Would love to see close ups of the armour.

I missed this post earlier, sorry.

Here's the A7V:



The Beutepanzer:



I deliberately left their markings a bit crude; that's how they appear in all of the photos I've seen of the real thing. They're all hand-masked airbrush work. The camouflage was also airbrushed. The streaks were done with oil paint and a mineral spirit/turpentine wash.

And an example of a few officers; I took this photo before I put the mud on their bases.

Nice finish on the vehicles, pics are a little dark but the figures look rather nice too.

Mud on the bases, if you looked at wargames forums you would think that it rained for the duration of the four years in Western Europe :)

The effect you got on the tanks is superb. The airbrushing you did looks spot on.

I ordered all of them - British (also seen in my other thread) and German - from Brigade Games.

Out of curiosity, has anyone heard any news of the rumored Bolt Action WWI book?

No news from Warlord, only reference I have seen is on the Osprey blog, down as a forthcoming release this September.

Whoops, I meant to make that post in the "Our Latest Great War Game Using Modified Bolt Action" thread, my apologies.
