From EricMc - 28mm WWI Germans, Part II (130 Points)

Sorry for the second entry being back to back with the first.   I was able to finish this group of Germans pretty quickly.  I promise only one more boring group of Germans then on to something more fun.  


I did experiment a bit with the basing. I think I like the basing color of the groups in the first post better.


 The flammenwerfer teams were fun to paint. I think I like the Great War Miniature version better where the weapon is held low. The Old Glory over the shoulder version may be accurate but you would have to be crazy to use it that way. 



Thanks for looking.
26 28mm figures at 5pts each is 130 points 

These infantry look great Eric!  To be honest, I perhaps like the basing on these fellows a bit more. I find the larger chunks of grey rocks/debris more visually interesting than the smaller talus, but that's just me. :) Nice work!

    I'll second Curt as I like these bases more. I think the more extreme contrast Eros well at the scale. Those flame troopers were just lunatics, I had nones they were shoulder mounted...... Madness!

    These guys are plenty interesting, just not high contrast. I think the mix of basing adds interest.

    Nice to see more WW1. I know I said that last time but as a wargamer it was an era that was mostly side lined before the Millennia. I also prefer the new bases, but at the end of the day it is ONLY what you think that matters.

    Great stuff, I would have given them a less grey and more greenish uniform but that's just me nitpicking. Cheers!

    Boring Germans? While I personaly know quite some that would fit this bill I can't see any in this post. Very well done on these again. I too do prefer the other basies though.

    Great stuff Eric. Either basing style works for me. I love them both.

    Very nice, I quite like the over-the-shoulder flamethrowers, they are unusual and distinctive.

      PS I think I prefer the bases of the first batch.
