Tsuba Miniatures: 'Red' German Sailors (Painted on P.3)
« on: December 20, 2013, 10:32:51 AM »
Finally somebody for the Freikorps to fight against.  ;)

These are basically done, I've just asked Paul to add the rhomboid looking collar insignias and the ends of the cap bands for the 'sailor-look' like this man serving with the Torpedodivision L5 (photo found on the internet):



For now there will be five sets:
- Command set
- Sailors with rifles advancing
- Sailors with rifles firing/loading
- HMG (this set will, of course, also include a MG08 HMG although it's not show on the photo)
- Sailors with assault weapons







Hopefully, we'll have the castings available in February 2014!

Very nice indeed.
Em dezembro de '81
Botou os ingleses na roda
3 a 0 no Liverpool
Ficou marcado na história
E no Rio não tem outro igual
Só o Flamengo é campeão mundial
E agora seu povo
Pede o mundo de novo

Very happy to see these guys are going to get produced. :)
"Peace" is that brief, glorious moment in history when everybody stands around reloading.

Oh yes they will do nicely. Well observed habit of red troops carrying the rifle barrel downwards too.
