French, Polish, English, German. Includes a polish cavalry option though which should be quite cool. Germans have about 8-9 army options, Poles have 4 and the rest are in between. Look through my created threads list from my profile and you'll find where I posted a slightly more detailed list.

The Army boxes that they are releasing all look nice as well. I will have to try and resisit buying them unless I have my American Paras and XXX Corps stuff painted by then.

Up on the BF website.....

Soviets are quite far away Im afraid. But the PDF list is very good, so I can wait.

My Dwarf Army is nearly complete so serious work on this project will start soon.

Sooooo Dwarfs all finished and Ive moved my paint station east of the Urals! This project is now my main focus, so things should come thick and fast now.

Ive started this week with the truly awful QRF T35:



Not happy with it at all tbh. I don't like the battle damage, its too OTT, I don't understand why they made it that way. I'll do a gaming models one next for comparison.

They did it that way cos thats the wau most T-35s ended up - Shot fulla holes!

Got any T-28s? Another pointless lumbering beast of a tank. Got two in my 20mm Early Russian Army. Always destroyed before they do anything.

I have to agree that the battle scars are way too much. If it was a model of a destroyed T-35, that would be fine but for one that is supposed to still be active it is bordering on silly (of course the design of the T-35 could be said to be that as well, I suppose).

Big P, Look at the start of the thread, the T28s are there.
There will be a full company of 11 pointless lumbering beasts Where's the fun in playing with good equipment in early war? lol

duncana: I did consider doing that, but it would mean ordering another Gaming Models one from the states and the model costs $4 with a postage of $12.

Looking forward to the future forces (Soviets obviously will be one of the first released) that will come out in the following books. The french tanks are really cool as some of them have deep roots in WWI tank design still.

Got the first Gaming models T35 done:



Not perfect but better the the QRF one. They'll do for now and their cheap

Got two more T28s done as well:

So Ive been busy



Ive got through the tanks so quickly Im thinking of adding a light tank COY as well.

Next Im block painting all the trucks.

Thats all the T-28s they ever had there! LOL! Though they will need lots of smoke markers!

Nicely done.

Lol, Im somewhat short of the 411 T28s and 61 T35s on strength with the Red Army in 1941, but you are right, I will be needing lots of brewed up markers! (thats a special project comming later).

Ive already brought extra soviet counters for all those bogged down and bailed out results

Well you have made me buy some more 20mm T-28s!

Oooo Expensive, Ouch!

Yes... And not doubt they will require hideous amounts of filler!

Oh well... I will add them to the Soviet pile...

Mmm looks like a fine target for my Panzer 3s then=) but seriosly. it looks great, would be fun to play against

Those are looking good. Any chance we can see a close up pic of the BF T-28 next to the others and the Gaming Models t-35. Thanks.

When I take the next lot of photos I'll do that for you.

Got a bit side tracked doing terrain for the Poland game but back in the saddle now. Here we have the AT guns:





Next up will be 37mm AA guns.

So here are the 37mm AA guns.







Next up 21 stands of Motor Rifles! Reckon I might go blind first......

Nice.

Like the base... Lovely urban feel. Can almost see the Stukas over Stalingrad!

Those T-35s could seriously tempt me to get into FoW. I used to have an obsession with them back in the days of Squad Leader. I think I only killed a single PzKw Ib with them, ever. I have the ICM 1/35 kit, which I want to start someday, but I want some detail kits first.

ZF-

They were nice and cheap and will do for now, but they will get replaced when BF bring out a nice one.

I love em, its a shame the British Army never adopted the Vickers Independant

Looking good. Any chance you took those comparison pics. Im thinking about getting some of the Gaming Models T35s and want to get an idea how they compare. Thanks.

I will get round to it. My laptop broke over the weekend and so my only internet access is at work at the moment.

Some IT Boffins are looking at it today, Bear with me.

DoomOnYou72 just for you:



BF T28 with frame ariel next to a T28 from The Tank Man (avalible on Ebay only)



QRFs T35 (Battle damaged) next to Gaming Models T35. Neither are perfect, but the GM one is a damn sight cheaper.

So its been a few weeks, but I have been busy

Heres the Infantry:





Also Ive done my knocked out tank markers:

Thanks for the pics Ill pick a few up now. Thats the thing about the soviets I hate...painting all the troops. They are looking good.

I have a tutorial on how to speed paint Soviet infantry if you are interested...

I have to say that the troops are not much of a problem for me, it was the bases that took the time. Having siad that, the Infantry COY only took me just under 4 weeks, and that aint bad going for 116 15mm figures.

What did you use for the base of your knocked out tank marker?
