Ze Germans

So I Thought I'd show off these guys while i'm still working on my next Kawalerii unit. this are my German Grenadier Company, the first force for FOW that I've put together and played. I'm fond of this scrappy little team, they do their jobs extremely well whether it's lighting up a shooting gallery or digging in and holding objectives.

                                      I really need to start photographing on a better surface.

             The mighty StuG G platoon. I'm pleased with the Camo and mud effects on the Schurzen.

my Pak 40s. if these guys dig in, they are unstoppable. love them. need to finish those bases though.

the Grenadier platoons. the guys with the red-edged bases were not painted by me, and while i dont like the lack of contrast on their uniforms i do like the little bushes.

                                                  some better looks at the Schurzen.

That's it for now! I just wanted to show these guys off while i finish my next Kawalerii platoon. which is coming as soon as i find time to photograph them.

Pułk Kawalerii- first platoon done!

 Yeah, so I'm new to blogging- this is probably going to be horribly formatted. At least the pictures look halfway decent.

   Anyway, these are the first finished models in my third army for Flames of War. The list is a 'Pułk Kawalerii' or Early War Polish cavalry regiment, and I swear I'm going to finish this one. Even though it has a ridiculous number of figures compared to my Americans and Germans.

  So the picture above is the 1st Company Commander, and the bugler which will accompany the Regiment HQ.

The 1st platoon, minus the anti-tank and bodyguard sections. Tbese miniatures are Forged in Battle, excellent quality and price. Unfortunately, although 15mm WW2 minis  are usually designed with the idea that they'll be used with Flames of War, this set doesnt come with enough minis to represent a full platoon. The extra minis will come from Battlefront, they don't really mesh that great but will be a fine placeholder until I get something that blends better.

More angles. I love the way their bases look. Gamer Grass ftw.

I will post more as i finish units- Dismounted Cavalry or Taczankas are probably next. I also an on doing posts on my other forces and non-FOW stuff. Stay tuned :
