Great looking chaps and I was always a big fan of Paul Hicks - too bad he´s not designing 15mm too  8)

Mr. Hicks does indeed produce some lovely sculpts, which are a joy on which to apply paint...

Seconded. Couldn't agree more...

And, now, for my next trick... 8)

Empress 28mm Volksgrenadiers.  Well mostly anyways, as you'll see.

First up are NCOs and a MG42 team.




Next are 3 chaps with Panzerfausts, and a Wargames Factory plastic Heer fella (the one on the right - he's a filler for my Wargames factory Heer squad...)




And these are the good ol' rifleman...




Last, the whole lot together...



The Volksgrenadiers are a 9-man Gruppe, and a 2-man Panzerjager team (the 2 with StG44s).

Next up are US M1919 teams and 60mm mortar teams.  Prepping and priming on those guys is scheduled for next week.

Nicely done fella.   I do like these Empress chaps…just a shame they won’t mix in with my slightly larger figures.  Keep it up!

Ps…if you hav3 any Warlord Volks….can you pop them side by side please?  🙏

Really top notch work Jim! Liking those a lot. :-* :-*
Em dezembro de '81
Botou os ingleses na roda
3 a 0 no Liverpool
Ficou marcado na história
E no Rio não tem outro igual
Só o Flamengo é campeão mundial
E agora seu povo
Pede o mundo de novo
