From ScottM - German & French ATG's (50 points)

My contribution for this week is a pair of early World War 2 anti-tank guns, one from the French and one from the Germans. First up is the German Pak 36. This set is from Warlord Games.



The second set is the French 25mm from Crusader Miniatures.




On both sets, besides the usual flock, I stuck a few shell casings, from a pack I picked up from Secret Weapon Miniatures. They're too small for anything of larger calibre, but for these little guns, they work great.

So that should be 2 ATG with 6 crew, all 28mm - 50 points

From Ray

Two excellent looking artillery pieces Scott. Warlord and Crusader do make some excellent figures. I especially like the French, its not a country you see much in WWII, (sorry French people, no pun intended!)
Great idea adding the shell casings, they do add to the overall effect of the base. 
Top work! the 2 x ATG's will earn you 50 points!

  3. Nice work, Scott! The German crewith and gun are nice, but I really like seeing the French gun and crew! Don't get to see to much of french troops equipped with French gear in WW2 minis unless they are the Resistance. These fellows are a rare treat! ;)

  4. Nice work on these ATGs Scott, they look bloddy marvelous. I'll add to chorus that it's nice to see the early war kit and French stuff appear. Is that a Hochkiss 25mm? Di the Brits use these for portee mounts at one point?
    Cheers, Peter

  5. Well done Scott - great work on the guns (and crews of course). As Peter and others noted, it is always cool to see early war French troops in particular.

  10. A great set of 'Doorknockers' Scott! I'll repeat what others have already said in that it's nice to see some early war French getting some attention. Nice groundwork too!
