From SylvainR: Tray 05 - 6mm Early WW2 German Cavalry (87 points)

 

This week, I offer the rest of the German cavalry battalion for early WW2 that I started last week, namely the 3rd company (green), 4x scout elements (purple), and the Company HQ for the weapon company (yellow). The rest of the weapon company was completed before the Challenge and consists of horse-pulled wagons carrying HMGs and mortars. Since the 3rd company as well as the Company HQs are exactly the same as what I presented last week, I will focus on the scout units. Below, you have a mix of models from GHQ and Heroics & Ros and each group has a pack horse. I know it looks a little odd to have so few miniatures on such wide bases, but I wanted to keep my cavalry elements consistent. Besides, I enjoy doing scenery on large bases.


For the shot of a single unit, below, out of the blue I tried the 2x zoom function of my i-phone's camera and the result was quite good. The image ended up clearer and the details, sharper. I'll keep using the zoom from now on.


Points claimed:

87 mounted figurines at 1 points each = 87 points

Total = 87 points

Thanks for reading!

Another week of 6mm goodness Sylvain. The cavalry are tremendous, and once more you have shared a great talent not only for painting, but for beautiful basing which does so much to help smaller-scale figures "pop". Excellent work, and that will be another 87 fine points for you!
