Some more early WW2 Germans. This time a bunch of kradschutzen

What we have here is a right old mix of manufacturers. Hat, 3d prints and metals I think from, well I can’t remember. They’ve taken me long enough to do but here they now are.

Apart from the five combos at the back they are representing a ‘typical’ 1940 m/c battalion; HQ, MG company and two m/cycle companies. The guys at the back are to add to some armoured cars I have lined up to form elements of a recce battalion. 

Of course it has not escaped me that technically I ought to do a bunch of dismounts for if and when they get into action. Mmmm?  Now they’re more of less done I can move on to some French Spahi I think……

  1. I love the idea of an early war motorcycle battalion - or even a company. Sadly all my stuff is late war (at the moment :) )

  3. Well done Colin, they look great. I'm a great fan of using German M/Cs and light armour together as Recce battalions. Definitely unfinished with the dismounted versions😉
