I painted a Blue Division Squad to play Operation Squad with them.

I like them a lot! An interesting subject realised very well. Are you just going to do the one squad or will there be more?

Really nice stuff, and always cool to see "different" units.

Yes, just one squad as it all I need to play Operation Squad. I bought the Warlord box with a friend so my squad only costed me 12 euros.
Thanks!

Beautifully painted!

Very cool, nice unique unit. Is the distinction just the shirt and side badge, or is the shoulder tab also different?

AFAIK only right arm and helmet, and not all of them. Also, some of them also wore their Spanish medals together with the German ones.
Thanks for the kind words.

Nice, thanks for sharing! The Blue Division is a really interesting unit, and cool to see represented in miniatures.

Nice paintjobs.


I don't like these Warlord mini's thought.  They don't seem to 'sit' right to me; they don't seem to be quite holding their rifles for example.

My only issue is the slenderness of the weapons. Would make them hard to use with other manufacturers and although they might technically be accurate they just look a tad too fine for me.

The painted minis above though are excellent! Great job.

Thanks!

if you had bought it from Maelstrom Games, you have paid 4 euros less!
