Rural african warfare (update - 07/08/17 - african armor wip)

[Father Primus]

Thank you! 

But the anti-armor guy with the panzerfausts and shield is my favorite.
I'm sure he feels totally safe hiding behind it while engaging his target. 

They don't call it "shield" for nothing 

Now, our brave and cunning leaders:warlord and a witchdoctor.

For a minute I thought this was turning into a Frostgrave warband

[Father Primus]

Better call it Hotgrave 

Well, witchdoctors are rather common characters in many settings...

[SABOT]

Superb work.

[Viden]

Nice idea.

[Johnno]

The guy on the left is my absolute favourite!

Great PA figure as well!

[pinstrpepete]

Simply fantastic stuff mate. Keep it up, I can't wait to see more... maybe even a cheeky vehicle or 2? 

[Father Primus]

Thank you...

Well... maybe their arsenal will include some simple machinery 

And here are painted leaders of tribal militia:

[von Lucky]

Thank you!!! 

Local X-Zibit put his hands on another present from Uncle Leo Brezhnev...

That is very nice.

You might want to add a splash plate across the glacis (I assume it is there to stop water splashing up into the driver's hatch). It is a very popular post war addition.

The skirts look good.

You might want to add a heavy machine gun, either an M2 or a Dshk depending on your backstory. Yugoslav T34s provide some examples.

There are photographs of some UK museum examples here:

Excellent figures,reminds me of a documentary I watched once of African tribesmen with AK,s that were involved in cattle raiding with neighbouring tribes.
