These are my FlaK38’s (minus the command team) that I finished off last week. The guns themselves were painted with Martin’s airbrush about a year ago? but have only now finished them off painted the crew and based them. Pretty happy with my work on the camo smocks for these guys, the combat platoons (of which I have no photos yet) are a realm mismatch with me trying different techniques and even colours. They’re far from perfect but they’re certainly adequate. I’ve also continued my theme of painting the bread bags ‘luftwaffe blue’ (highlighted to a considerably bright pale shade) because well I think it makes them stand out even if they’re a bit bluer than they probably should be. Must be my background in painting fantasy figures that makes me want to do that.
Wow those look incredible. I’m sure a Typhoon or thunderbolt or two will crap themselves when shot at by these veterans.
I hope so, but then they probably have rubbish range and I seem to be the only person who uses aircraft. Likely they will wind up shooting infantry. Still they’ll look just as good doing that.
Have segwayed from FOW briefly to paint James Ork Warboss. It’s been nice to have a break and paint something fun for a bit. So far I’ve put in about 15 hours on it and it’s about 1/2 to 2/3’s finished. It’s not as good as I had hoped (I was aiming for ‘eavy metal standard, which frankly is still a little beyond me despite my enthusiasm toward painting better) but as critical as I am I think it’s probably the best painted figure I’ve ever done, and like I say it’s not even finished.
