From TeemuL: German halftracks (20 points)

Keeping up my tradition to post something every week, here's a small entry of two German halftracks. I was on holiday for a week and these were almost ready a week ago, just final touches today.


These are older models, part resin, part metal. Sd Kfz 250/7 (8cm) painted in rather late war scheme to match the rest of my collection. I have worked mainly on Operation Bagration, but this particular model doesn't appear in the army lists. May be I use them as objectives or something like that. I might add some identification later, if I figure out what to do with them.


My rushed finish shows quite ugly, the Reikland Fleshshade was pooled in several places.


There is a mortar and a machine gun on each.

Group shot with some earlier works

Two 15mm vehicles and 4 crew members, but only painted the upper part of them, so only 1 point each, 20 points in total.

Hi Teemu
You may have been rushed in the painting of these half tracks, but I think they look 'the business'!
The colours look great and work well with your earlier models.
If there is one thing I know about gamers, is that painted models will always be found a use ... it may be later rather than sooner, but these half tracks will find their way to a game table!
 Curt frequently tells me that he's unearthed minis from years ago and has just the right idea/plan now ... hahah ...

20  points for you
Cheers!
Sarah
