WW2 - Zvezda releases

Impulse buy for BG Kursk.  While out shopping today I popped into Antics Model Shop and found a restock of the Zvezda kits.  These are in a most substantial plastic than the earlier Art of Tactics kits and at £2.99 a model I couldn't pass them up.  So NINE kits later (2 each of the Ferdinand, SU-152, T34/76 1943, and a T60, M3 Lee and M3 Stuart) it was off to the physio

WW2 - BG Kursk Germans - Daylight

Happier with photos using daylight rather than the energy saving lightbulbs I have on in the evening.

WW2 - BG Kursk Germans - Progress

I have had an evening or two to add milliput to a couple more figures and sort out a basing mix that I like.

PP Pak40 with modified crew figure sitting astride the LH trail.

A selection of Infantry with the basing mix applied
1 Part Burnt Grass Coarse turf
1 Part Green grass fine turf
2 Parts Burnt Grass Static grass

See if I can get a better couple of shots in the morning when the light is better.  The "Plane Tree" is just about visibile in these shots.

Ummm.... Sit on the other side of the table and see if it makes any difference

Not really.  Washout out.  Will try again in the morning

Here you go...
