Well, you could always go with something like this group of soldiers found a cache of some new old stock uniforms in that house and decided to replace the dirty bloody late war uniforms they had on!
Horses!
Modeling is an excuse to buy books.
You could use one of the armored cars, like the 221 or 222, or a 6 Rad or 8 Rad.
Could also mix some motorcycle and mounted units, too. All of these would be period-appropriate.
garzonh Too bad....I liked these figures....hmm...I will probably then not use the tank and only use the figures..and add my damaged and abandoned SDKFZ 251, it will also help me save time Thanks a lot!!

Again, can't really use them with a 251 (unless an A or B but there weren't many of these at the time these uniforms depict). These figures are really limited to the Polish and early French campaigns.
Bronto is spot on. Its not so much the colour but rather the cut of the uniform, the pockets in particular. And jackboots were also out by 1944 replaced by ankle boots and gaiters. The helmets also changed.
By autumn camo, I assume you mean the camouflaged smocks. These were only worn by the SS and they were very different again from the tunics.
I am a Norfolk man and i glory in being so
On the bench: Airfix 1/72nd Harrier GR.3/Fujimi 1/72nd Ju 87D-3
That would be a better plan, and pick a Blitzkrieg tank like an early PIII or a PII. Also forget the Russian.
No, you can't use the figures. The uniforms are early war. While I'm sure someone will post a one off picture of an early uniform late war and say "do what you want anything was possible" type things, in general those uniforms were replaced by the time of the Jagdpzr IV. You can't just paint the uniforms in any type of camo as the camo uniforms were of a different style / cut.
Thanks a lot on the advice!.
Does this means that I can use the figures, but have to be careful on the uniform colors?
Can I use the autumn cammo scheme on them?
Watch using that DML figure set with the Jagdpanzer IV. The DML figures are in early war 1939-40 uniforms, while the Jagdpanzer IV didn't come into service until 1944.
Hey guys!
Finally decided to make my first diorama!.
I've been more active in the Armor forum and now I feel more conformtable to start my firts scenery.
Some of the armor guys, now me for being little crazy and go too far. So, being my first build I decide to throw everything at it.
Definitely, will be a challenge and hopefully get some good results. I will ask for a lot of help and suggestions, as I have seen some amazing, impressive work around here.
So, this is it:
So, lets get ready to ruuuuuumbbblleeee.....
