These are from Frontline Wargaming (a lot of work to just get to this stage but as the budgie said they were cheep!) and will be used for scenery from the south coast of England to the wilds of the Soviet Union.
These look great! As soon as I saw that one trucks load could be taken off to have an empty platform I thought it would be cool if one of the soldiers was placed on it! Do any of the other trucks have removable loads?
As I never tire of telling people...if you read Gay Sejour's The Forgotten Soldier, he tell's of the time he was coming back to the front from leave in Germany (I think? He may have been returning from hospital) when he was co-opted to join a convoy or 'Zug' of 100-odd trucks heading up to the frontline through partisan-rich territory as a driver's mate/vehicle guard, and he specifically mentions a vehicle as being both British and signwritten with the details of an English removal firm!!
Presumably captured during the fall of France several years earlier. So you could get some transfers from a model railway supplier and still sent it East!...
I always like it when you include the civilians as they are part of any war. Somone commented about where you store your figures. I've often wondered the same thing.
They're looking good. Effort is worth it if the end product is good.
ReplyDeleteExcellent. And the budgie is never wrong. I've picked up some 20mm early war Soviet pieces due to pricing and I am happy with the product.
ReplyDeleteVery nice! I shall be getting me some of those.
ReplyDeleteGreat paint-job on those.
ReplyDeleteVery good!
ReplyDeleteThey great! Really hit on the rustic look.
ReplyDeleteChristopher
oh, love the trucks! Very realistic!
ReplyDeleteOh yeah, Lurker! Lookin’ good, Sir. Trucks to haul, hide-in, and make a great escape!
ReplyDeleteVery handle set, mine have appeared in lots of scenarios, especially to represent unknown vehicles.
ReplyDeleteVery nice, something to run Ray's troops over with!
ReplyDeleteVery nice I haven't looked at that company before but I will do. Thanks for the headsup.
ReplyDeleteThose look good. I like the job you did on the canvas tarp.
ReplyDeleteThe details on those trucks are really great! :D
ReplyDeleteThey ought to fit in very nicely with your other stuff. A good find and great paint jobs on them.
ReplyDeleteThose look great!
ReplyDeleteVery nice looking cars !
ReplyDeleteBest regards dalauppror

ReplyDeleteDo any of the other trucks have removable loads?
Those look awesome. I really love that shade of red.
ReplyDeleteVery nice models, you always need trucks
ReplyDeleteNice job Fran. Like the removable Stowage can get some troops on it
ReplyDeleteNice. my favourite is the flat bed one..but they could all be used for 1930´s + gangsta gaming.
ReplyDeleteCheers

Lovely work, and a great idea.
ReplyDeletevery nice, now ive been coming here for a year atleast and seeing new pics of different figurines, where do u keep them all?

ReplyDeleteVery versitile pieces nice paint work on those!

ReplyDeleteVery nice. Coincidentally I have two of those unpainted. In the plastics and tin mountain...

Good job on some beautiful models. I'll have to look at their website.
ReplyDeleteFantastic Fran. I especially like the trucks' load. Top work Sir.
ReplyDeleteGreat work Fran!
ReplyDeleteThe paint job is fantastic. (:
ReplyDeleteVery nice trucks!
ReplyDeleteI agree with Luckyjoe. The detail on that tarp (or whatever you'd call it) is very nice.
ReplyDeleteGreat work as always.
ReplyDeleteThey're very good. I wonder if anyone does suitable civvy trucks in 15mm for use with FoW etc..?
ReplyDeleteis it strange that I almost touched my screen trying to feel the fabric of the truck covers?
ReplyDeleteAre there any little zombies hiding in those trucks?
ReplyDeleteThey don't look very durable. Then again, they are for civilians. :P
ReplyDeleteTerrific work Fran!! :-)
ReplyDeleteT.
Very nice work Fran.
ReplyDeleteScott: Got some bits on Peter Pig....
ReplyDeleteNice! I particularly like the cargo wrapped in the tarpaulin - nice touch.
ReplyDeleteExcelent models, a great painting job.
