Great work on all of these! My only suggestion would be,if your going for a WWII look,maybe making them look a little more "low tech",more beat up and what not. Give some wear to the clothing and paint washes to the Rebels trench coats..remember paint work can make your customs look a hell of alot better!  :)

These are pretty old photos and I can't seem to find any of my rebels in GI gear.  I'm lazy with paint of figures since I play with them and these are just added detail to my vehicles which I do paint to various degrees of detail.  I posted the vehicles and a dio in appropriate sections.

Thanks!  I like to keep things simple with my figures for durability and it's amazing how well the Dragon static figure accessories transfer to other lines of figures.  I figure if the war continued several years longer, German troops would be a valuable resource, so the POC Beachhead armor works perfectly.  Now if I could only find Russian gear...

Here are my vehicles for this universe:

My latest and probably last piece to this collection.  (Pardon the flash, I was too lazy to turn on the lights lastnight.)



Russian/Allied dropship Limpet(?)

Reversed cockpit and wings to fly like a helicopter.  Made to drop troops on top of an AT-AT to take it down from inside.

I love the camo on that one German smock. Looks very lifelike for the fall camo of the time.
