Jagdpanzer

 

Im still working on the kits I got last year (or was that 2 years ago) for my FOW collection. This vehicle in the picture is in the Canadian War Museum collection in Ottawa. 

Panther platoons

 So I was able to get some more Panthers from Plastic Soldier Company in 15mm for my new smaller battles. Smaller in scale but bigger in deployment. 

The kit has 5 tanks

 So I'll check woth what I have and flesh out my current platoons.

I shall have to paint some more

Dug in Jagpanther

 

So with the Vallejo Mud effect, I've decided to use my spare hull bits to build some dug in tanks with spare bits I have. 

Im working on a second so that I can field a platoon. 

Take and Hold.

 For my Dad's 75th birthday I ran a game from FOW North Africa. He was to take and hold a town with supplies

Tobruk Bunkers and Dug ins

 

So I have a few spare bits which have turrets and hulls but no running gear. The Stuart's been dug in, the gun is a short barrel led version

The other is a Tobruk style Panzer II turret. I plan on making a few more of these either in Concrete or Mud for my Westwall defenders 

Wooden bunkers

 

I found the plaster wooden culvert at Great Hobbies and with the Railway ties, i decided to turn them into bunkers which can be used in a European or North American wooded area.

Terrain for desert or forest.

 So I picked up some terrain effects. 

Good for desert or forest

Im going to see if I can make this into bunkers

Could be good for quick field fortifications 

And I have a sand effect to add to my desert figured.
