Valiant Germans.

After waiting all week I finally finished the basing on these chaps yesterday.

About a year ago I scored a sprue of these guys. Just the one sprue, a whole 17 figures! Anyway Gav has made and painted up a box of Germans as well so these guys will have some friends to help them out.
Very nice figures but a real shame that they are in a scale all of their own. This did make me realise that had I not sold my 1/300 WW2 Germans a couple of years ago, that I would now have WW2 Germans in 7 Scales!! I have a fair number of Germans in 15mm, a small bunch of Airfix Germans in HO scale, an army of metal guys in 25mm, some Warlord 28mm Germans ( with more to come) and some 54mm Guys!

The first bunch of Valiant guys done.....












I have also painted up a mortar team, 2 teams with MG42s and some command figs. Photos to come.

  1. They look great. I have two boxes of the US infantry but they have never been used as they are simply too big for my 20mm figures.

    Cheers

  13. They look great. The scale issue put me off, they don't match with any other brand of figures.
