All,

Hello everyone, thanks for stopping by!  Can't claim that this project is finished, don't know that my 6mm WWII project will ever be finished.  Hell, I know it won't, but that's okay, because it's a journey, and I've got two forces that are plenty big enough to play plenty of games with, I just keep adding more. And that's what this is; while someday I hope to get to collecting forces for early Barbarossa and North Africa, I've been working on NW Europe, both summer and winter for awhile, and I'm here to show you some recently completed troops for those.


Here's what I just finished, both German and Allies for winter (left), summer (center/right), and even some terrain.


The dreaded 88s, and some Baccus Nebelwerfers.


Wolverines, Hellcats, AA halftracks, and a British 17-pounder ATG.


The chateaus.  No works of art on my part, but good enough for my humble table.

jack - those guns you listed as 17 pdr are US 3" I suspect, the angled shield being the give away.

Ian,

Now that is interesting, and funny!  I do believe you are correct, Sir! I wonder if I ordered the wrong item, or was delivered the wrong item? No I don't, I'm sure I screwed it up!  No matter, they will see service as Allied ATGs between 57mm and 85mm ;)

V/R,
Jack
