"Battlefront Panzergrenadiers for Normandy" Topic

All,

Yet another 15mm force, this time Germans for NW Europe in WWII, likely to start facing off against some Brits or Canadians in the near future as I've got a yearning for it. These guys were purchased several years ago and laid about for quite some time before I get them on the table (a few of them were in one of the Operation Jupiter games), and then I split off half of them and painted them up for the Mediterranean. So here's the other half of the Battlefront Panzergrenadier platoon, with some extras from an Infantry Aces pack.

The whole platoon, 22 guys, done up with camouflage smocks and gray pants, and a few with zeltbahns, which I think turned out pretty well. To see a bunch of closeups, please check the blog at:

So, another force, and I'm pretty happy with how they turned out. I'm finally back home and the boy is already asking me, "Daddy, when can we have a battle?" So, we will definitely be playing this weekend, just not sure how many games we'll get it. Stay tuned, I've still got one more Napoleonic batrep to post.

V/R,
Jack

Very nice! I am doing the opposite- I just finished off two 51-figure 20mm Canadian infantry battalions for Northwest Europe and No. 4 son is bugging me to get some Germans done

Those are nice, but man, your flesh is too dark.

"Those are nice, but man, your flesh is too dark."
Especially for the Nazis!

Thanks Frederick, and good luck!

John and Abn Eng: sorry guys, but I like the skin tone. Either my eyeballs need to be recalibrated (because it looks good to me), or it looks better in real life than the photos. I've used it for years, on thousands of figures; I didn't even start using other skin tones until I started messing around with modern 15mm troops where I wanted to show differences between Caucasians, Hispanics, and African-Americans.

V/R,
Jack
