Hi folks
Today I finished painting the Blitz Battlegroup from the Great War commission I started this year.
This has been a very enjoyable project for me to paint and I can’t even begin to add up the hours spent painting this. I’ve grown very fond of this force and it’s going to be hard to hand it over.
Anyway, here it is and in a break from the norm I’ve made a little set up.
|
1st Platoon dig in for the incoming assault |
|
Now you see why I don’t put grass on the bases |
|
Wotan and a Sniper provide supporting fire |
|
HMGs have the centre covered |
|
2nd Platoon launch a flanking maneuver |
|
Flamethrower teams itching to get stuck in lead the charge |
|
Trench guns provide supporting fire |
|
The newly arrived Mephisto give the troops a morale boost |
|
AT Rifles waiting for that perfect shot |
That’s all the Great War fun for a while, I’ve got to crack on with another commission and eventually get around to painting something for me. I’ll return with part 2 of this commission end of March/Beginning of April, when I add in some captured Mark IVs and a Stoss platoon.
Take it easy guys

Great looking units and decors, love the tank!
Very nice. The infantry are looking great!
What color did you use for the uniforms? Is it historically accurate? (Not a criticism, just a question as i like the colour so much) It looks very eye catching.
Your posts are making me want to paint some great war…
Thanks guys, the uniform colour is none other than German Uniform (85) 70.92
Great colour I'm glad I held off painting until it had arrived. I added Sunny Skintone to make the highlight colour.
Ooh, I think I have that one. Those bluish colours highlight very nicely.
