Originally Sgt Major Miniatures, but they closed down.
Early War Miniatures picked up this line.

I've done some winter Germans and added some SS Camo scheme mixed in with the various combos from smocks to pants.  On the winter smocks, you can do the camo scheme inside the hood, then a mix/match of both winter and camo.

Oh, the terrain looks pretty good too!

Thanks Greg.

Yes, this is my version of the Heer swamp 44 on some of the figures jackets and pants.



A tad too much red brown are my thoughts.

After a week of no painting, I finally have almost finished these winter Heer figures. Just the boots and a final check.

Not what some of you can do, but decent enough for my table.

Further work on this project.

All the vehicles in the first photo are slated for winterizing.

First up, Tiger 1.


First white wash on the Tiger 1, using Vallejo white wash with added white paint, as it's too thin.



Added mud.



Then detailing and snow. 75mm pak 50 on the left.

Nice Tiger.

You might want to add some more track armour to those Shermans lurking in the background...

Cheers Gents!

 Ultravanillasmurf!  Quite the track job on that one.

Here are some photos of Sherwood Ranger Yeomanry tanks.

Nice work!
I'm getting a chill just looking at your terrain!
