Last French 1940 figures

To finish off my French 1940 project (for the time being anyway) here are some shots of the last French figures I needed to paint.


The final French Officer




Medium Mortar Team



Medic!



Proper 47mm AT gun crew

So that's it for the French for now - until my next game (whenever that will be) and I decide to change the force or to add some more stuff.

Thanks

1940 French - other vehicles

Continuing the French theme - here are some other vehicles that I will be using:

First up - a Laffly W-15 TCC - by ACE Models with a Battlefield Miniatures crewman:


 

Next - a couple of S-Model Renault UE Chenillette that I use as my AT gun tows


Next - a Cromwell Models (well I'm pretty sure it's a Cromwell) Laffly V15T with an AB Figures crewman



And finally my slightly dodgy use of a Hobbyden Citreon van (post war) as an early war Radio Truck!  Well it looks that part to me anyway...


I guess one day if I ever get the correct vehicle I'll sway this out... one day....

Thanks

French Anti-tank Gun Crew

Next up is the 3 Anti-tank gun crew by Blitz Figures.  I have two anti-tank guns - both by ACE Models.  This first is a Hotchkiss 25mm Anti-tank gun S.A. Mle 1934:


While the second is a APX 47mm Anti-tank gun mod.1937 :


Right now I only have one gun crew set (the second is on the way) so all the subsequent photos are with just the 1 crew - which look like this:


Here they are with the 25mm gun (I wasn't happy with the front on photos so I'll not show them):



And the 47mm gun:


Pretty happy with how they turned out.  The ACE 47mm gun comes with 5 or 6 shells, so I'll be doing some very small conversions to give the crew the larger shells.

Thanks
