Pafetikbazerkas foray into 15mm Flames of War
German infantry down and counting towards basing
German infantry from Hit the Beach all done except basing. I’m holding off basing till all my units, German and American, are done so I can set up a bit of production line and ensure consistancy
Also interesting how you can hit a wall with these projects and think think your done only to look at them a few days or weeks later and see more to do. Especialy through the eyes of a camera lens.
The camera shows these figures could be better, but they are 15mm, and thats what I have to remember to tell myself. Maybe if get around to it I will give them a good gloss and a bit of a pinwash to up the shadows a bit and maybe I’ll touch up the faces, but honestly, standing at gaming distance, most of the detail just blends away so I’m calling them done, feeling free to change my mind at any time.
Did I mention I could see more to do. Another Hit the beach box! That basing sesion may be few weeks off.
@pafetikbazerka – great job on the German infantry. I especially like the mismatched smocks, trousers, tunics, etc. Almost all the German units actually facing the beaches that day were cobbled-together battlegroups of “coastal” divisions, including some Ukrainian and Belorussians, with some elements of 352nd fed in as training cadres. Really great attention to detail!
Thanks oriskany, this confirms my understanding and justifies all my happy accidents trying to portray German Field Grey.
