I noticed that the post with pics has tappered off, and if anyone is like me, they will be painting this weekend. So what are you are all working on?
I am painting my 99 point panzer platoon. 5 Panzer III Auf. Fs and 2 Panzer II (F)s. I am trying to model an element of the 7th Panzer during 1940 France, but I am having trouble finding good info on its unit makeup.
Next comes an Armoured Panzer Grenadier Regiment element if I have time.
Sd Kfz 251 x5 70 pts
SS-Haupsturnfuhrer 7
SS-Panzergrenadier x2 10
Panzergrenadier x2 10
97 pts
I will use Tamiya XF-63 as the base color for all the vehicles. I have not decided on what I will do to the soldiers.....

I will be working on units from my 2 SS Panzer Division 'Das Reich' 8th (Schwere) Company. Three Tiger Is, two King Tigers and a few Panzer IVs. All in late war 'Ambush' camo.
I've been working on some simple camo schemes for some of my A&A Mini's. I did some of these with a small kitchen sponge and Reaper Pro Paints.

The new Puma looks cool in Autumn Camo.
I also Painted some details on the new Russian Rocket launcher. I painted the windshields ghostly grey, the rocket bodies bleached bone and the rocket tails blood red. The decal on the door is from the set checklist flyer.

like the rocket launchers:Dyou already have some set III painte. still deciding which one i can mess up on.:p
Hey don't be afraid to put brush to plastic. Most of these Mini's are just sreaming for some details to be picked out. Just about anything you put on them is going to be an improvement. It seams set III was put out in haste or another company was used for the details and decals are seriously lacking. I would like to see AH return/live up to the slogan "World at War! No time to paint Mini's"

Here are some German Vehicles I painted up this weekend. 5 Sd Kfz251 Half-tracks (Honomags). A Panzer II Ausf. C, 1 Panzer IV Ausf G, 1 Jagdpanzer, 2 Sd Kfz 222 armoured cars and a Tiger 1. These were all fun to do and I added some Cross Decals, I made up.

I'm working up to it. Some of the Jagpanther camos have me itching...if I only had more than one.
I painted the Elite Panzer in camouflage. Check it out on its own thread.
The next one I'm doing is the Archer. It's in progress. When I get my case tomorrow, I start the motorcycle.
Just painted this Wirbelwind last night, I'm going to work on some more Mini's this weekend. Lets see some of your work. The new set III has plenty of units that need just a little help.

Nice work, FNG. That's the one piece from set III I don't have. Looks sweet in camo.
