I really like them. The FJ have always been my favorite Axis forces in the real WW2. I wish I could paint like this. As for the heads, I guess I will have to get them from SOTR or something. Do you have a link?

And I noticed in Seelowe that they drop all sizes of walkers, not just light. And they drop Apes and Zombies too.

Slick work. Love the detail.

You probably already have the book but I'll just throw it out here for everyone's reference:

Fallschirmjager by Bruce Quarrie (Osprey Publishing)

It's a pretty good source of info. The same company put out a good book on Eben Emael which I used to create a pretty complex scenario in another game. Lots of pics, both books.

well i dont know why it keeps cropping my pics like that, also it wont let me change the topic header like it did before to reflect current update.  anyway below are two more Recon squads and a shot of the force so far.  only a 'Hans' and three more squads to go!

Great looking army there Guild. Id probably add the Sturmpioneers when you do the hans to give them a little more hitting power- and besides everybody loves flamethrowers.

Love, love, love the color scheme and theme, but I am not too hot on the alt. heads. They look...out of place, for some reason.

Sorry guys, but due to the demands of my Studies, I can no longer accept commissions!

Alrighty, Sturmpioneers and  the last recon squad done.  Now just need one more hans/herman/heinrich to get to 303 points.  Should i add anything or leave it at 300?

   Thats just beautiful, theguildllc!

    I'm also doing an Italian campain paint scheme, but my walker camo is a harder edged tri color with a redder shade of dark brown, more clay like, and the pattern is frustratingly intricate!!

   I'm in awe of your infantry! mine are much more simple! I dont have the eyes or the hands to do that level of camo on the troops!

   Keep it up!

 

Why does being bad FEEL SO GOOD?!?!?!

Thanks Major, I just recently did a reddish brown i was happy with on a sd kfz 234/1.  The Italian Tele mimico (?) is a tough one to pull off, though of doing it myself but feared it too much.  Looking forward to seeing your work!

p.d.
