The Road to Falaise Bobs on going 15mm WW2 Adventure
Another week another platoon
When I finished my 1st Zug of Panzer Grenadiers I realised that with a few additions from on the Beach Germans I could build a 2nd Zug, so I did and the main focus of this week was to paint them. Annoyingly I miss counted and need one more mg42 , luckily one was left on sprue so they will be done during the week.
In the spirit lets get all the infantry out of the way so I can paint more tanks, I decided to start the British or finish them if earlier instalments, so based the platoon from the starter box, now the cover shows only 3 bases , so I assume that’s the figs needed for the carrier squad. But there is enough for a Motor platoon and a enough extra to still do bases for carrier squad so that’s what I have done.
I also sprayed my jeeps and Halftrak for the last bits of Kelly’s heroes and 4 Hellcats I picked up on e-bay
I had found a site doing Zveda kits at reasonable prices so I got some German heavys for later in the war:
3x King Tigers
1x Ferdinand (sorry John)
1x Jagdtiger (Kevin likes them)
and ermmm! as Sturmtiger, only one I’m not going down the route of having more than were made.
so in the evenings I built them
Bob they look great, can’t wait to seem them finished
Bob, the cheapest I have seen Zveda kits is on Arcane Scenery and Models – £3.99 at most per tank including postage. Did you find them cheaper than that? I have a few Zveda kits, they are good for the price.
@Robert got themn from e-models £3.37 each.
Ahhh no, don’t tell me where….. 10 mins later 2 Jadgtigers, 2 JagdPanther and 2 King Tigers later….. nice
Cheers, Bob. I put some in the basket, but then realised I want to get some of the new FoW German releases so am going to be good until then!
I’m ok till the Jagdpanzer’s and Skdz 250’s are released. Then can finish Panzer Lear.
Got my tanks, they’re so fun to build. This is bad… want more….
Strong work buddy that’s a huge amount of stuff you have got through and those are some very heavy German armour pieces you have added hehe
