Bolt Action: 1940 France German Tank

 Well a 251, and a Panzer IV came with the Bolt Action German Blitzkreig starter set, so I said "Why not!" and promptly put it together and painted it in two days, maybe five total hours of work with drying time and decals etc. It really flew by and I was impressed with the resin body and metal parts.

Here are a few shots...




As always thanks for looking.

Cheers
Kevin

  1. Great work once again Kevin! I am still debating whether to add some carriers or armoured support...I am very tempted by the 3x PzKfw 38t pack......

    1. Thank you, and you can’t go wrong with the 38t, Rommel’s 7th Panzer had a buttload of them.

    1. Thanks Iain, when I finished it all up, lacquered it etc. I realized I had missed doing the rubber parts around the road wheels, but the dusting covers that error pretty well;)

  3. Very nice Panzer and infantry (from the previous post). I do like the look of Early War.

    1. Thanks Dean, the best thing is there are no Tiger tanks! Seems like everyone has Tiger love these days, how bout the simple Pz38t, yeah baby!

  4. Dang... I was certain this was a III and not a IV. Very nice looking Panzer! Is that a 2 day growth on his chin or like my Mom would tell me, "Your face looks dirty!"

    2. Hey Skip - easy trick for you - count the road wheels and divide by 2 - the PzKfw had 6 and the PzKfw has 8.....so......you get the idea! Panthers and Tigers are easy - you can tell them just by looking at them :)

  5. Great looking Panzer IV, Kevin. Sounds like this is a nice set from Warlord Games.
