On the Workbench: Waffen SS

Completed and ready for basing are almost 2 battalions of late war SS for use in my Market Garden and Reconnaissance in Strength projects.



These are all excellent new sculpts from Heroics & Ros range. I have confined the camo to the Oak leaf spring and autumn varieties with a few in field grey.

Looking forward to getting these on the table and using BKCIV in settings other than desert!.

  1. Wow, hard to believe they are 6mm and are a World apart from their old ranges. You've done a great job on them and look forward to seeing them based and in action.

    1. Thanks Steve. They really are a leap forward and I am certainly looking forward to getting them on the tabletop.

  2. Those look fantastic, and by that I mean both the sculpts and the paintjobs! I'm with Steve; I was always a fan of HR, but those new sculpts are really something. Almost on par with your paintjob, truly amazing for 6mm. Looking forward to seeing them in combat.

    V/R,

    1. Many thank Jack. I bought my first H&R in the early '70's so a degree of brand loyalty! My only mild criticism is that it is a shame that when re-sculpting the vehicles they did not follow the figures into a slightly larger scale. i.e. 1/285. Their figures though, along with 2D6, have set a new benchmark.
