Flames of War Hungarians

[Duke Speedy of Leighton]

Work in progress. Need to finish bases and rest if army by this time next week!
2iC with added regimental standard.


Not bad so far...

EDIT: Pic resized.

[Steve J]

Nice touch to add the standard .

[Hertsblue]

Looking good so far, Will. I like the idea of the "cobblestones of Budapest" if that's the way you're going to finish them.

[Duke Speedy of Leighton]

Yes. I'm that sad that each platoon has different cobble pattern.
I've spent ages on Google researching them!

.  Tell me it isn't so!   Please!   Tell me it isn't so.  I am deeply conflicted - this is the sort of thing that I - I mean we - do, but to this degree?  What next?  Green gloves for the officers, but only for the first battalion, of the Brunswick regiment in 1870?  Oh, yes I did that already!

[Duke Speedy of Leighton]

So did I!
2nd and 3rd battalion wore white gloves BTW...

They're great, Will. And the bases are very effective. Now all you need is a townscape! 

[kev1964]

Excellent job Lemmey, really great basing and character ,( i' m going to Budapest next friday so i'll check the cobblestones for accuracy  ) great work,

kev

[Matt J]

Love it Will, particularly the STUGS.

and that cavalryman has some strength!

and the barricades 

[Duke Speedy of Leighton]

Thanks guys.
Kev, let me know, but I'm not resculpting now!  I'll have to use them on another platoon if I got them wrong!

[Hertsblue]

If it's Budapest, Will, you're missing the tram lines! 

[Duke Speedy of Leighton]

No I'm not! Look at the HMG and PAK platoons Hertsblue! 14.2mm at 1:100 scale!

[Hertsblue]

OK, it's a fair cop.... 

[nikharwood]

Very nice, Will - I do like StuGs - and yours are lovely 

You definitely need a nice cityscape to scrap these on though!

Overall effect: you make me want to do these. But in 10mm, of course 

[Duke Speedy of Leighton]

Good luck, Leon & Dave haven't produced them yet... 

[nikharwood]

Good luck, Leon & Dave haven't produced them yet...  

Yep. 'yet' being the operative word...I was being subtle & hinting  

not like that fsn 

[fsn]

... and where does subltle and hinting get you?
