This is a platoon build of five WWII German Panzer IV F's, from March 2009. It was the second 15mm miniatures build project I'd done. A Flames of War platoon box, it came with solid resin hulls and metal accessories. The decals came separate from the box set, in a decals sheet bought to outfit several boxed sets over time. The turrets are loose, and I had still not learned about using rare earth magnets to secure them in place yet, but may do so in the future (alternatively, a little BluTac works nicely for that purpose).
The Finished Work!
Some Swag Shots
Shown along with their most likely battlefield nemesis of the Americans... Shermans!
And some shots in-play in a game I hosted at a couple forums back, "Oil for Panzers"
I loved the way these came out! I remember considering possible weathering, but I liked the end result simplicity. These see regular use on my miniatures gaming adventures!
