Thanks for the comments, I'm glad you like them!

Thanks WK I'm trying to keep the number of forums I post on down ( too much time on the computer!!)

Regulator: It's sort of an Oak-leaf camo pattern ( Autmn/Winter). I tried to keep it quite muted so the jackets looked old and used ( these guys are supposed to be old veterans).

Once again tremendous stuff.Real inspiration!The sniper is truly superb.Crackin stuff.Do you use a late war uniform guide (like Militia no6 Waffen SS in colour or similar) because really impressed how your platoon is painted in camo.Keep up the good work...your work MAKES US work harder!!! lol

Thanks again for the comments!

Marrony: I used the lid off a Tamiya Panzer Grenadier box set for reference for the camo. It just said "Oakleaf Camouflage". I matched the colours with what I had available and it turned out reasonably close.

Hello PM,

thank you for the wonderful pictures and the inspirations. Your fantastic conversions and paintjobs brought me into WWW II recently. I just recieved the 1/48 Luther Warwalker from DUST and started building and painting it.

Thank you again and I think I'n not alone saying: "Please show us more"

Ciao

It was a simple case of sculpting some gas masks and body armour to match them up ( sort of...)

Yah. Simple  ;) I'd be spending a lot of time putting gasmasks on minis :-)

Very nice work. Excellent looking troops.

Thanks for all of the comments!

Elmar: What do you think of the the "Luther" mini? I would love to see your completed model.

I've been "Off Hobby" for a while and haven't painted or modelled for months. ( Real life stuff is a real bummer) . I got a huge load of Soviets for Christmas so I shall be digging into those in pretty soon.

Hi PM,

I like the 1:48 model kit of the Luther. There are 5 different weapon systems in the box. The assembly was easy and all parts fitted well.

a picture of the assembled walker ready for priming


I took a lot of pictures of the sprues, assembling of different parts etc. and will start a topic with them in the next days/weeks. I will give you and all interested here a short info.

The Luther model is very nice. The Luther pictured above is the plastic model one, not the resin correct? Where did you get it?
