Some support weapons to bolster the platoon with a couple of MG34s, 10.5cm LG40/1 Recoilless guns, some panzerfausts and panzerschreck (if the war drags on into the mid war period), kettenkrades for towing the recoilless guns.
Nearly everything is AB figures again with the kettenkrades and recoilless guns from SHQ miniatures, I think the artillery crew shells may be a bit big for the recoilless guns but I want to be able to use different artillery pieces if I have to, again painted by Ray and finished by myself (I think there may be some issue with some colours but it wasn't for the lack of research).
I will have one more post next week with more support including 8cm mortars, drop canisters and casualties.
Anyone selling a really well painted 20mm or 1:72 scale German Fallschirmjager glider or two cheaply??????:D
Pictures are the usual quality, apologies.
Pics are good so is the painting mate!!
ReplyDeleteTerrific work!
-No gliders I'm afraid...-

These look great. I particularly like the MGs – takes me back to my Flames of War days.
ReplyDeleteThese look great Angry, dudes with the Panzerfaust are especially good.
ReplyDeleteVery nice Mr Lurker Sir.
ReplyDeleteGood (Team)work again.
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't do it at least half as good in that size.
btw. as a German I love the word Panzerfaust
Yet more nice stuff!

You guys did a really great job on these. Ashamed to admit that I didn't even know the Germans had a recoilless gun, so I learned something new (for some reason I simply pictured it as a somewhat later invention, go figure). Very cool.
ReplyDeleteWoah, thats pretty cool. I'd love to have a Kettenrad.
ReplyDeleteA nicely painted group of figures. Well done to you and Ray!
ReplyDeleteNice figures.
ReplyDeleteNicely painted again its amazing how you to stomp through all these figures! Well done.
ReplyDeleteMore very nice stuff
ReplyDeleteGreat stuff! That'll keep those Tommys' heads down!

ReplyDeleteAwesome little artillery guys! Raining down miniature death from above. lol.
ReplyDeleteLooks fantastic, as always! Now... how the hell does one pronounce Fallschirmjager?
ReplyDeleteWonderful! Nice stuff!
ReplyDeleteI think I have a 1:72 of a viking helmut. Will that help? :)
ReplyDeleteThe artillery looks amazing as expected. I've always had a soft spot for that kind of stuff.
ReplyDeleteDo you glue something on their to make the grass?
ReplyDeletenice work as usual, mr lurker!
ReplyDeletenice as always, Lurk!
ReplyDeleteyes, my favorite German word, Panzer.
ReplyDeletemg's are looking good :)

ReplyDeleteAllentesch: PVA glue.
ReplyDeleteSorry the canteen is closed. Hope the salad was nummy. Went to the market today for Yukon potatoes so I can make more Irish Potato cakes but all they had were whites and reds. And I really fancy the yellow for potato cakes.
ReplyDeleteGoing to make some evil corn that James had.
Num num num.
Great work! The paint and basing are excellent
ReplyDeleteSome great stuff. Good luck with the glider hunt. If you don't want to do the paper gliders from Fiddlers Green, Airfix and Italeri make the Horsa that you could build and paint as German.
ReplyDeleteVery nice basing old bean it compliments the wonderful under appreciated painting!!
ReplyDeleteAnother beautiful platoon!
ReplyDeleteVery cool, What are those motorcyle tanks called?
ReplyDeleteFAHL-sheerm-YAY-ger, parachute-hunters
ReplyDeleteIf the front went static long enough for all that weaponry to appear, I'd imagine the front would have to be along the defensive line of the Thames with London sort of like Stalingrad--and where does that leave Gravesend?
Wonderful work!
ReplyDeletenice work again!
ReplyDeleteGreat painting there! I quite like the recoilless guns - it will give the FJ a bit of bite.
ReplyDeleteI know this website presents quality dependent posts and other information, is there any other web site which provides these kinds of things in quality?
