Another LMG pic

Russian LMG and HMG troops.

HMGs, the assistant gunner was a separate piece on these, a real pain in the butt putting them on the base with the gunner and the MG!

Light Mortar.

Closeup of a squad stand.

Honeys, from game table distance the brown splotches give a decent caunter cammo scheme effect.  Just run the brush from front to back on the mini.

Out of Focus PZIIIJs.

That's better!  Unlike late war German equipment Desert stuff is a breeze to paint.  Base coat, a couple highlight colors (black wheels on top, a black smudge at the end of the barrel),  tracks in grey, and the dip and your done.

Heavy Squads in front, Honeys in back.

Side shot of a squad.

Finishing off with a side shot of a couple Kneeling Riflement

With these finished up I have most of the forces I need to play out the Fireball Forward North African scenarios I purchased last year, the IABSM scenarios I've been sitting on for years, and a bunch of Fistful of Tows scenarios based on "Sands of War"
