Dismounted Kradschützen Truppen Part 2

 Another small batch of individually based Crusader Miniatures 28mm early WWII German infantry for your entertainment today. These were finished some time ago but had to wait for a gap in the posting schedule! Another batch is partially painted and then there are a couple of odds & sods to do - 2 x AT rifle crews basically - and then I am most likely done for this collection. I will see how I feel early in 2024 - a new Blitzkrieg collection may be on the cards - possibly Poles or early Soviets - but then again, I may follow the butterfly somewhere completely different - or, back to a long-established collection that can always take some additions - like one of my four Napoleonic forces!

Anyway, here are tonights figures:

  6. The detailing of the collar and helmet insignia as well as the epaulette piping really elevates these. Nice brushwork!
