Freikorps "Von Lemiets" - a T&T Force

Pegasus?

Pegasus?

Those houses were provided by Dodge and Khartoum2 - I seem to recall they are indeed the Pegasus plastic ones. Quite nice, maybe a little too clean in their design for my taste, but absolutely worth the price, I'd say.

Already booked my tickets for the train ride, and will certainly take a look - those tankettes were great, and I'm very curious to see how the rules will work in a WW2 environment.

What color did you use for the uniforms (blouse & trouser)?

[dodge]

The buildings are pegasus russian ibzas , log houses and the large farmhouse,

they are1/72nd scale but fit in well with 28mm due to their large size

I think thet are good value for money.

Chris has inspired me to do some freikorp,

At Blam his force was truly powerful with a tank and hmg , but still lost out to Khartoum's Reds in the last 2 turns. |Bad dice rolls in the melee 

cheers

I painted all blouses in "German Uniform" by Vallejo (which is actually a WW2 shade, but I like it), washed with a dark grey/green mix ("Black Green" and "German Grey"), then highlighted with a mix of German Uniform and some light grey. The trousers are painted in a variety of greys, including dark greys and dark rubber tones, to make them look a little less uniform in appearance

Great. I just wanted to ask that as I only found 1:72 last night. These russian houses look very versatile. from Latvia to the Ukraine, from WW1 to post-apocalypse.

At Fiasco, I got one of Force-of-Arms' nice Lancia Armoured Cars. A very nice kit, with only minimal flash. 100% resin, with very nicely cast MGs. I opted for the twin-turret variant, with the top turret and rear hull MGs removed, based on an image I had of a Freikorps Lancia. Also left off the wire cutters and repositioned one of the headlights, and shamelessly stole area23's idea for using a placard (his thread had it on the rear of an Izhorsky-Fiat, I placed it in the front).



Worked out quite nicely, methinks. I really look forward to doing a whole A4 sheet of period placards to print and cut out.

wonderful minis chris!   

[area23]

Nice!!!
I found another picture of the placard lying on the street. Apparently in certain zones of Berlin these posters were everywere.

I also realised that the German Revolution was this week, 92 years ago.

[Blackwolf]

High time they had another then. There's even a chap who can print off the placards.

[area23]

The placards were from the Kapp putsch, later on. The Freikorps were well organised by then, with government support.
