Eastern Front c.1914 - update 29 Oct
« on: September 01, 2013, 12:17:25 PM »
What with the Army Painter challenge leading me to dust off some Imperial Germans, I thought it timely to show off the rest of the force  :D

August's efforts:


The Infantry represent 1st Grenadier Regiment "Crown Prince" (1st East Prussian) (Grenadier-Regiment Kronprinz (1. Ostpreußisches) Nr. 1) with the cavalry based on 8th Uhlan Regiment "Count zu Dohna" (East Prussian) (Ulanen-Regiment Graf zu Dohna (Ostpreußisches) Nr. 8), both of which formed part of the 1st Division on the eastern front in 1914.

Battalion HQ:



Firing Line:


Uhlans


The Opposition!

Third picture down.

Some matching "plugs" to fill in the holes when deployed/casualty (like for Litko movement trays) and those stands are near perfect.

Outstanding work!

Gracias,

Comfortably in time this month with an officer and twelve man platoon:



They'll be off for varnishing once the PVA holding the grass in place is dry  :)

Next up, another fourteen grenadiers...

I love the Tsuba ones, but have enough Russian infantry for now  :D
