Wow, that is something new- the END of a project! You give hope to us all grin

As usually, lovely work! I know what you mean about the guns- it may not be necessary to model off board arty, but who can resist?

I expect the last post for this project will come with champagne, yes?

Thanks TJ. Yep, this has been an uphill struggle at times, but we are almost there!

I lie the big guns, it's just a token, like all the figures, I guess, but a nice one!

Ha ha, we shall see, certainly a well-deserved beer (or two…)

And pls keep us informed when the city fighting starts. Now we want to see the units in action!

no offense, brother, but your grey looks black. you need to re-think what panzer grey tone is…

Abwehrschlacht06 Jun 2015 1:51 p.m. PST

Tuscaloosa, don't you worry there will be a full report on the action, just keep watching the blog!

John, the Grey is Vallejo's German Grey drybrushed with Neutral Grey, so any mistake in the Panzer Grey Tone is Vallejo's not mine. However, the pictures may make the tone a little darker than in real life. :)

Anyway, it looks OK to me: link

I'm both happy for your having completed a project. So you can get to gaming. But sad. As we'll see no more of your excellent progress on this project. And I like your dark Panzer Grey…

Thanks Rrobby, don't worry, I have plenty more ideas for new projects… Napoleonics in 6mm may be the next big one… So at least there will be some colour, although I'm sure someone will tell me that the red is too dark/bright/orange/whatever!

Very nice Alex, they look pretty good from where I'm sitting. Love the red and white ranging poles
