From MilesR: 28mm WW2 Vehicles (45 points)

 Who loves painting tanks during a Blizzard? - this guy!

Yet even more WW2 vehicles from three different manufactures.
 First up is a Hungarian Zrinyi Assault gun with a long barreled 75mm AT gun.  The model comes from Mad Bob's miniatures and came to me via their kickstarter.  I doubt I'll build a Hungarian army but I liked the look the tank.
 Next up is the "German Sherman" a model of the Panzer IV f2,  This is an interesting kit as its a very early 3D printer kit from RPG models.  I got it back at my first Hisotricon in 2011.  Despite the early date for a 3D printed kit, it's really detailed and came in just two pieces - the hull and the turret.
 Lastly, my Soviets need a little love and they be getting that in the form of a Warlord BA-10 armored car.

My three vehicles heading off into the sunset - some are muddier than others!

3 vehicles and 15 points each equals 45 points











Well obviously blizzards suit you Miles.  These are three very nice AFVS.  I really like the  Zrinyi, I am not at all familiar with minor states AFVs .  The Panzer 4 is a really nice model, I love that it's a vintage 3D printed model.  And those Soviet Acs really look the business, even if they do look like they'll topple over easily.  Nice weathering, especially on the Mark 4.

  3. I do like the Hungarian Tank Destroyer, I have not seen one before. They all look good though but that one is just a little different.

  5. Jonas clearly has a lot to answer for! I think we should all complain to the relevant authority, aka Mr Snowlord ;)

    Nice vehicles Miles :)

    1. I'm afraid this Jonas fellow is not on the payroll. Sorry. Must be one of those foreign migrants 'The Donald' keeps telling us about.

  10. Love these tanks! Same as everyone, I particularly like the Hungarian AFV, though in the photos it looks hauntingly like a block of cheese. Maybe it's because I'm hungry...
