weird war 15mm vehicles ?

[sundayhero]

Hi,

I'm wondering if some "realistic" wierd war 15mm vehicles and armour exist? I mean, something not looking like a japanime or star wars mech or tank. I'd prefer something like the planes (speaking of design) in "secret weapons of luftwaffe" vintage video game, for instance : some designs wich stayed blueprints, but were engineered seriously. Some "fantasy" vehicles, but wich would not look that weird in a picture with real ww2 vehicles and soldiers.

Some of the dust tactics designs are a pretty good match, but I'm searching for 15mm. For now I didn't find.

thank you !

thank you,

But I badly explained what I was searching for : in fact I was looking for ground vehicles only (tanks mechs/robots, etc...), not aircrafts, I took the "secrets weapons of..." example for the design approach, not because I was searching for planes. Sorry for the misunderstanding !

Clockwork Goblin do turrets to 'upgrade' your 15mm plastic soldier compan tanks (they also do very low tech looking mecha)

Battlefront's Mid War Monsters:

(there's about 10 designs - you need to search the store for each design)

Forged in Battle:

(Lots of German what-if, including a Ratte!)

Khurasan Miniastures:

(Just one US tank)

Are you trying to find Soviet what-if (to match what you're painting)?, because I can only think of the Battlefront stuff designs (KV-3, KV-5, etc). Most of the realistic stuff will be German.

nah, I focused on the planes example and looked right past the armour and vehicles remark *facepalm*

Found the link in the Battlefront shop that lists the Mid War Monsters:

For the Soviets you could also use British and American stuff and say it's under the Lend Lease agreement.

What ?!? Using US or british imperialist s*** when our proud soviet comrades engineers and comrades factory workers can bring us the best machines available on earth
