Those look absolutely awesome.    :o

Is there a German or at least European retailer for Gorgon?

Cheers

Need some of these. Lots to paint beforehand but I am definitely getting that "need some of these" feeling!

I think I know that feeling.

Great figures Aaron!

Keep them coming.

Have you painted your US Paras yet?

I would love to put on a demo game with your Mountain troops and our German Paras for Crete. Maybe throw in a 1/48 JU52 kit or two?

Think for that you will be getting the mortar crew anyway- do with it what you will!

Thanks Bruce- and will do- lots more coming- and some new things coming soon I hope!

Trying to paint the OM Paras for a little Italy campaign I am working on, but no where near done unfortunately.  Just got done our own 'studio army' of Polish 10th and Gebirgs for the Convention refight of Lwow 1939 which looked wonderful- hoping to bring that to one of the larger Eastern Cons.

I'm sure I'm not the only one who would like to see some pictures.

Got these figures today.Me likey ;D
Nice clean sculpts,great detail,little flash and they will fit with pretty much all the other figures I have.
Size wise they kinda fit in between Artizan(they actually remind me of Artizan figures with better scaled weapons) and Bolt Action figures(not Warlord) and, since I have both, its perfect.
 But...   need more Polish rifle poses!
Pete

Hey Aaron

Lovely figures. How's about adding a mule train carrying a disassembled mountain gun; that would be good!

Does anyone know if the range is available in Europe or the UK?

Ask and you shall receive-

Well almost- first mule set is with the baskets, next will be the mountain gun.



German Gebirgsjäger were expected to cover difficult and often treacherous terrain. Roads and established trails were often unheard of in the areas where they operated. To rely on motorized transport for supply and support was not an option. In World War Two, Gebirgsjäger made use of mules equipped with light but sturdy wicker baskets to carry necessities, the same as they do today.

They are great, looks like my forthcoming order might be a little bigger than planned.
