Scaling back after the Baneblade...

 Slowly working through lots of things on the desk to make room for the rejuvanation of the last of my Late War Germans in advance of a local Flames competition in May. 

 First, some Panzer IIIs for my EW Germans: 

Markings are still to do, but we'll get there. I'm having a bit of a think about how I want to do that still.  

I had 4 8-rads in my EW collection and I'm unlikely to ever use all of them so I decided a couple could be redone in dunkelgelb:

 

This has opened up the hilarious proposition of doing KG Graebner from the LW Bulge book, a list I never got around to in FoW 3E. I have looked at it in Forces and it might be hilariously terrible. 

I've also getting started on list building for the competition in May and so I'm painting a platoon of Fallschirmjager - I started with the CO and 2iC bases that I could make up from the blister as a test of painting camo smocks: 

 

They're cool. The camo is quite loud in person, but I think it works well in 15mm at tabletop scale. They open up a number of list options for the comp as well as a number for me generally that I haven't been able to run, especially now that LW Dynamic Points have made the D-Day FallschirmStuGs a much more interesting list than it was. 

Next Time

More random stuff, I expect....
