Thanks everyone  ;)

Another day, another German AFV without a turret. This time the monstrous Sd.Kfz 186 Jagdtiger.






Quite liked painting this one. I went camo-free on this one to represent something rushed straight into combat in the closing battles of 1945. Not sure how often it will see the tabletop as an actual fighting unit, but when we finally kick off our Fall of the Reich campaign it will see some use abandoned by the roadside or wedged in a ruined building, as scatter terrain.

Couple more vehicles cleared from the unfinished pile of shame  lol

First up a pair of Mad Bob Miniatures 21. Panzer vehicles: a Pak40 Somua half track, and a 15cm Geschützwagen Lorraine Schlepper.







A pair of really great models, lovely detail on them and arrived needing almost no prep beyond a bit of glue. I need to do some crew for them next so they don't look abandoned...

After that I also finished a Wurfrahmen 40 aka Stuka zu Fuss. Model is Rubicon, the crew are some Artizan models I've been using for a couple of different models are crew (my Pak40 etc)

I do like your paintjobs. I especially like the smokey look of the camo spots though as well as the very careful chipping and weathering. Great work!

Wonderfully painted minis, sir !


Love your Mad Bob Minis.

I have some models from Mad Bob for my french army, and yes, they are scaled in 1/56 (but they have a 20mm range too).
