1941-42 German Infantry

Finally finished what has turned out to be a very long term project. I started these a couple of years ago, packed them to move here, and then found them recently and decided to finish the unit. Painted in Vallejo colours, I think they are in keeping with the generally tidy early war appearance of German infantry


The whole regiment is a mixture of Revell and Airfix figures, except for the mortar platoons which are Pegasus


1st Battalion


2nd


3rd


Company command platoons


A few of the machinegun platoons. The only difference between these and 1939-40 units are that the machinegun platoons were removed from the battalion support and added to the rifle companies


Rifle platoons


Mortar platoons


Command sections.
