Very nicely done 

Thx all!

Hey all!

Been a while since i updated this one, but as some have seen, i finished the ruskies first. I have started Ze Germans now. In my thread about the russians i asked what i should paint first, and most said the infantry so i can get solo games in.

Now this got me thinking, i would have needed my command bases then, and as they included some vehicles like kubelwagens and the like i had to do these first. Then i thought, might as well do the transports for the infantry and the guns then. ANd then i thought, might as well do a tank destroyer or too then so i could use them in my games right away. Then i thought.....

Long story short, i just painted whatever german vehicle i had in my to do box 

Here's a picture of the progress, bases have been started, and the vehicles just need the drivers and crew done and they are finishe. Not pictured here are 10 bases of infantry in the form of the gun crews, hq's etc...

Good stuff, Peter - nice to see progress on these 

Had to do them anyway, the to-do box was full and i'm awaiting an order 

Looking good!

Hear, hear.
Cheers - Phil

And they are finished!

On the pics you will see some loose vehicles, these are meant for my command bases, although some are to be based normally, but as i have a shortage of bases for the moment (as in not a single one left) i can't finish them 

However i will when Leon sends my order over so the wait isn't long

The schwimmwagens and pzII L are pithead, all rest is pendraken!

Really look the part.

Thanks!

Look damn fine to me !!
Cheers - Phil.

Yep, I particularly like the the motorbikes. Most wargamers don't realise how many troops rode to battle on two wheels or three. 

Well as you can see, i have some bikes left. just enough to make 4 stands and have a spare for a command base. when everything is finished, this gives me a company on bikes and a recce unit on bikes.

At least that's what i think now, i keep changing my mind about these. Right now i am thinking:

2 bases with 1 with and 1 without sidecar, 1 base with two regular bikes, and one base with just 1 with a sidecar (for the recce).

But as i already have a schwimmwagen for the recce i'm not sure 

I want to keep them as correct as possible : two places on a bike, and one in a sidecar, so a stand with 1 of each equals transport capacity for 5 men wich is equal to the number of men on an infantry stand 

But i'm not sure....
