BRIEFING 1/72 Kits ft. WWII German Guns and Crews (Img and links to reviews)
Posted by Panzer_Grenadire on Friday, December 11, 2009 7:12 PM
Along this year I have proposed that the reviews I wrote to aim a particular topic, namely 1/72 sets including WWII German guns and their crews.
In this respect I have tried covering all 1/72 mass production sets available on the issue, featuring also some quite uncommon, for a total of 14 sets (there remained uncovered the bright new Dragon PaK40 crew and several Miniaturas Allemany kits made of white metal due to the fact that I do not have them).
On the other hand, almost each set on the topic required more work, not only the large number of conversions done on figs, but also the guns being time consumer).
Of course, except the sets on the topic, I had the pleasure to review few others having nothing to do with it as well as other things....
 
In this thread, that can be assessed as  a small data base,  I have grouped all the sets on WWII German guns and their crews topic as well as the links to each review.
If you want to read the reviews and see much more images featuring not only the standard content of each kit, but also conversions on figs, please visit the link attached under each name of the set. There are also few images presenting each kit and I grouped them according to the uniforms worn by the crews.
The unpainted guns means that I do not inten to use them, i only put them together for a better image of the kit in case.
Of course, some guns and their crws are quite oor, but while most of the guns are OTB, at least the figures I tried improving them either through conversions or painting.
 
Hope you have enjoyed or you will enjoy at least a part of them.... 
Any opinion is more than welcome and do no forget that any of the featured links provides plenty of images and the review of the kit in case..
