Just to note I have the master prints for the new 15mm German Grenadiers in zeltbahns.

The new set if due to begin moulding in the factory as soon as I have done the painting for the box art!

Will put up some pics later, usual new style PSC sculpts, will be good for those looking for more variety in their late war German forces.

Yay - that is great news. Aware you are no doubt bound by NDA's etc, but do you know if this is the start of a re-fresh of the other Infantry lines to bring them more in scale with the Late War British?

Very excited by the prospect of these, and looking forward to seeing some sneak-peeks of the sculpts!

I suspect all new 15mm sets will be in the new style...



As for whats coming after them, Im not suppossed to say but I have submitted the first set of research material to the design team for another set.

Another late-war set... German... Begins with 'F'...

salivating at the idea although hopefully there good cause the guys that start with F if im thinking of the right ones, BF ones are possibly the best ones they've done to date

ooh ooh I know this one!!..... Feldgendarmerie???

Flammpanzers

Hopefully at some point there will be more Soviets.. and hopefully in the same style as the current ones...

Have the new style EW Germans, which are very nice, just for Soviet gun crews would like them to match the current lot

Well clearly Big P is playing a masterful prank and it will be the German set of feindlichetruppen ost. Soviet boxes for everyone!

Though what it really is could be interesting too, as I've always been partial to those kinds of formations. I just shudder at the prospect of trying to paint them since the camo was very complex and I can't paint for beans. Especially after Big P puts out his examples that make mine look like paint-by-number.

I hate you so, so much. Purely out of jealousy that I am unable to even get on the same continent as that paint job.

Excellent work as always....ya bastich!

That is indeed a beautiful paint job, thanks for sharing!

Cheers guys... To be fair, these little fellas paint up well. Good defined detail and very easy to slap paint on.

F as in Holy I'm gonna buy some.

I can't believe anyone can paint splinter camo to that level of detail on a 15mm figure. Awe inspiring.

More...

Damn you and your impeccably painted landsers! /shake fist

The set itself looks very nice, though I'm overall not a fan of that particular late-war fashion choice by the Wehrmacht. Not much you can do there though what with that pesky "reality" thing so it is what it is.

Well, back to my painting table where my soldiers look like they're painted by a five year old in comparison... Guess that's why I don't do this for a living.

I actually love the Zeltbahn look... So very '21st Panzer in Normandy' look to them!

That's probably the most effective 15mm rendition of splinter camouflage I've seen.

How did you do the "splinters"?

With a brush.

For some reason I just don't like the Zeltbahn. I think it's because I prefer the other details of the Heer uniforms which the Zeltbahn covers. The Germans of WW2 had many bad things associated with them that we hope never happen again, but they were very snappy dressers too.

Well all of that plus the fact that I can't paint camouflage that's worth a damned thing might have something to do with why I don't like camouflage covers...

Camo is a pain... I dont like it either.

Hence why I developed a cheaty way to do it...

I'm sure I'm not the only one here who would like to learn more about this cheaty way of doing things...

If my models turned out looking even half as good I would be a very happy man!

Seriously. I can't even do this on 28.

Oh do go on....

His 'cheaty way' is the coin in the picture is actually the size of a manhole cover

Dang it Ghaz!!! How did you know???


Rumbled again!

I shall see what I can with regards a tutorial, but generally most tutorials I do either end up in a Battlegroup book or in WSS magazine...

Can dakka not get a sneak preview?
