1/72 DAK vehicles

[Gunner Dunbar]

 Hi guys

Another mixed batch of vehicles finished on commission, the Pz grey ones are all 3D, the rest are various cast resin pieces.

 Operation , "Greif". Those sneaky Germans.

Yes, I thought it was common knowledge the Germans did this in the battle of the bulge, but I’ve had a few people ask this question, interesting bit of history, a few German who were captured in US uniforms were shot as spies.

Very nice work, especially on the faux M10.

Interesting basing choice by the punter though, as the Battle of the Bulge (movie aside) was famously fought in the depths of a rather snowy winter and they didn't get a run anywhere else.

 Hi guys

These guys are ready for their undercoat, a platoon worth plus some assets, just need to add a 3inch mortar  team and some ammo guys for the vickers, I ordered a box of Revell Brit paras as I need NCOs with Sten Mk 2 or 3s, that arrived today and I added them in, I’m thinking I’ll undercoat in grey for this project.

Yes, I usually start a project with a CoC platoon, but I expand them to suit other rules as well.

I'm torn about 20mm and 15mm for my next CoC project

There’s a Simon Soldiers fig pointing next to the Bren gunner leaning his weapon on the wall, Simon’s figures are nice, but they are fairly small next to the plastics so could only use the kneeling figure.
I have a fairly large 15mm WWII collection in the stash, I may dive in one day, enjoying the 1/72 to much at the moment.

[FreakyFenton]

I always have to reassure myself these are smaller than 28mm! Your conversions and detail you put into these figures always amazes me. Great work!

 Hi guys

I have been having a long running discussion with a friend regarding various French soft skins used by the 21st Pz Div in Normandy, much is to be speculated, but occasionally you come across pictorial evidence of 1 vehicle or another, and my friend provided this picture of a Laffly V15R being used as a command car, so I took the opportunity to make 1, the good thing about doing the 21st is I can also use some of the vehicles in my 1940 French project, so I have done 1 test print as a 21st vehicle the other as a French one. Also pictured are a Ford V3000 and Opal blitz field kitchens I made for my customers DAK project, I’ll paint a couple of these up for myself, and will show more of them then, I am redesigning those vehicles so the roof will be seperate allowing for better access to paint the stove.

 Hi guys

These Tunisia Brit paras are about 60% done, the base colours are down, now to do the highlights, they are coming together nicely. Also printed some Japanese for my Pacific project.

Not sure about next, but collecting/gathering for a future project.
