In need of crew figures - advice please
« on: May 22, 2010, 10:39:41 AM »
Hi everyone.

I need some tank crew figures for looking out of hatches with binoculars or telescopes and for soldiers firing turreted weapons.

Can anyone point me in the right direction for VSF themed minis?

Ironclad Miniatures have several officer figures, one holding a telescope who you could cut off at the waist and place in a turret.
Parroom Station Miniatures now available from Brigade Games have VSF crew figures in several different styles speceifically designed for tanks etc.

Have a look at gun crews - the Perry Sudan screw gun commander springs to mind here. For firing out of turrets? The same, I'd say. Crew on machine guns (gatlings etc) would be good for this.
