From DaveD - 15mm US Tanks - 372 points

Part 2 of the 15mm painting plan seeing the factories of Detroit filling up the ranks of the US army in Normandy and beyond ,

M4 Shermans. - most of these have hedgecutter "Rhino" / Cullin prongs added for some later bocage battles.

75mm armed 

76mm armed 



M5 Stuart’s , and tractors




AAA Half’s tracks -
M15 & M16




SP Artillery
M12 GMC's - 155mm big bang stuff!


now some late war stuff. I haven't made my mind up on timeframe for these at the moment so have left tufts off as I am tempted to do a bit more "winter" Bulge stuff - but that way could lie madness

Late war

105mm armed

                           


Easy 8s


                               
the aerials are made form fishing line - it does add something i think 
M36 Jacksons



the tank park!


They are all Battlefront items. they do need a chunk more work on stowage and for some some passengers , but for now thats a job a another time

So it’s:-
38 15mm vehicles - (304 points)
42 15mm vehicle crew (42 points)
13 15mm full figure artillery crew (26 points)

Bit of terrain works next ., and i may visit a challenge island spot or two as i have some things that line up. This lot also puts me nicely ahead of target run rate for my target for challenge end


For Christ's sake Dave! Look lot can look on in awe but I have to play against this bugger. Epic points bomb, although your maths was rubbish

  5. Love them! Always on the fence about basing vehicles or not basing. So far I have gone no basing, but seeing this stuff makes me think I should
