Been working on these-
They are Armies in Plastic WW1 late war Germans. I am painting them grey and using them in two ways. Firstly as Austro Hungarian troops and secondly as Volkswehr of the new Austrian republic after WW1.
Here are the figures gloss varnished and nearly ready to go . They have turned out nicely and should look the part on the table. Notice 3d printed gun( thanks Doug) crewed by converted Airfix Japanese.
A very useful book with uniform ideas and campaign outlines. I will use it for ideas for games around the break up of the Austro Hungarian Empire. Rules thoughts are currently One hour Wargames, FLW and perhaps a more skirmish based set.
Finally was in the shed briefly and came upon an unopened box of Strelets , no idea when I got them,which will come in handy at some point in my Portable Wargame battles. A new Russian inspired interventionist force …
They looks very good Alan.
ReplyDeleteI really like the pose with the 'Lanser' with the LMG on is hip. He looks like he's going rouge.
Thanks. He is posed dramatically indeed.

Nice figures Alan. Armies in Plastic do make some great toys
ReplyDeleteThanks , they certainly do.

Some very useful generic interbellum figures … and a shed that keeps on giving.
ReplyDeleteIndeed and indeed. I quite fancy doing a wee conversion job on some Airfix Japanese with paper mache or modelling clay to make a wonderful winter hat like the fellow on the right of the Osprey book cover is wearing. Not sure if l could replicate the wool or fur effect…
