Nice add to the terrain log. I really need to paint mine. ::)
Maybe then they will add some more figs to the range.  lol

Thanks David, I've got those German tank riders from Warlord on order, so I may pinch your idea and have an MG team taking cover.

Warlord late war German tank riders. Shamelessly plagiarised Digits idea of using these blokes as an MG team.







The rest of the pack.

Cheers chaps.
Wasn't sure what the bloke on the left was suppossed to be wearing, so did it to look like bits of ripped up tarps, ponchos, pieces of zeltbahn & even a bit of windproof smock.

That works just fine. I know some Canadians got yelled at for wearing Germany Cammo, so Don't see a problem with the mismatched set. Its got a historical backing.  lol

I assume it's hessian sacks and old tarps.

Love that you took the time to use zeltbahn fabric. There's dozens of recorded uses of German camo by British and Commonwealth troops.
So it's a totally plausible interpretation. Here's a couple of pictures of Home Guard ghillie suits . It's in no way gospel. As Ghillie suits are individual as the nutter in side it.
I like your interpretation of the MG team. I've done a sniper and observer that would quite nicely make a similar scene . Simon has cast some I believe so if you'd like a set (when I get sent some) just drop me a P.M.
Mark.
