Something Different

More Steel Beasts

Still on a roll with the 15mm WW2 stuff. This time we have 8 Panther tanks, 3 from Plastic Soldier Company and 5 from Battlefront (Panther A boxed set).

Size-wise, the models from the two companies are a very good match; detail-wise, they're pretty good - the BF models have "busier" engine decks and spare road wheels for the turrets, the PSC models have plenty of track links and storage boxes.

Two of the PSC models have the early production hull MG plate, rather than a kugelball mount. Evidently this unit has a couple of survivors of the 1943 battles.






If Brookhurst ever deliver the Peter Pig Panthers I ordered, I'll add them to the mix for comparison.

And, because quad 20mm is not powerful enough, three Ostwind SPAA vehicles:




Lastly, we have a lone Panzer IVH from Plastic Soldier Company:
