One of our plans for this year is to revamp all of our WWII artilery packs with new crewmen, as well as making new moulds here at Pendraken HQ to make casting more efficient. We've also managed to squeeze in some extra Italian guns as well, to tick some items off the Request lists!
Most of these have got 3 x 'Light' crewmen for smaller infantry guns and 3 x 'Heavy' crewmen for the larger field pieces. The images aren't the clearest due to the brown putty, but hopefully folks can make them out!

Excellent additions!
They look very good. I'll need some of those Mid/ Late War Germans at some point.
However .....
Wot? No Russians :)

The existing Russians are more recent so we're OK to keep those as they are I think. Most of these new ones are where the current sculpts were done 20+ years ago so we wanted to bring them up to standard.
Very nice work Leon and team

The Russians were notoriously deficient in Artillery - as any fule kno!
Excellent sculpting, the Italian elefantino looks particularly crisp.
Hang on! WWII Hungarian Artillery? Don't get me excited for nothing, I want WWII Hungarian infantry.
Think the ideas for Hungarian infantry is to use late German WWI?
Great figures.
