Grenadier Platoons

Just completed these two platoons of FOW German Grenadiers. As a newbie to FOW I'm reading the rules and forums from various websites. One of the things I will do different I think is to base 4 figures to a base instead of five. This looks crowded but I'm still happy with them. I need to get better with the camera too.

Panthers

Here are a couple Panthers I just finished as part of my FOW project. Need to dullcote them still but somehow I managed to lose my decal sheet with numbers!!

And a shot of my Saxons. About 99% done. Going to add a few more mounted and that will be about it. Going to have them go against my Vikings using Dux Bellorum, Tactica and possibly something else other than WAB.
As an excursion to the FOW German Grenadiers I'm working on this 120mm Verlinden French Napoleonic Sapper! Oils over acrylics. A lot more to go. Might need more contrast on the skin though.
A couple de-stressing trips to the lake!!

Glider Anti-Tank

Here is the anti-tank unit that will be in support of my paratroopers.


Grenadiers

For my FOW project the opposing forces will be a German Grenadier Company. Here is the first unit; a Company Headquarters armed with a Puppchen!









82nd ABN

Below are my first attempts at FOW miniatures. This is the start to my FOW project. I am building a  82nd ABN Company. Here is a light field artillery battery with 4 X 75mm pack howitzers and their command to include forward observer. I still have to do the antennas for the radios and handset cords and spray with dull cote. Disregard the dark age unit in the back ground!

Bit the Bullet

So I got some FOW miniatures in a trade and I swore I'd never do it. Now I feel like a crack addict. Here are a couple reference photos of what I am working on right now. 82nd ABN to take on grenadiers. As soon as I take some pics I'll post them. Looking forward to diving into 15mm WWII. I went ahead and bought version 3 of the rules too.
