WW1 Flamethrowers.

Some of these guys I painted up a while ago but only recently finished off the last few.
They are from Renegade Miniature set WW1G 112.

I have been busy finishing off a few sets of figures like these recently so more to come in the next week or two.







I see that the blog has finally got to 200 followers after hanging in the 190's for ages. Thank you all very much for this. Thanks for all the comment too. I really do appreciate them.

    Are they 28mm? Take a look to the Scarab Austrian range (easily assimilated to German Sturmtroopers). Nice figures and congrats for the 200 adepts too

      Yes, 28mm. My eyes are too old now to paint anything less.

    Nice work and photography as well. These late-war WW1 guys would not look too out of place in early-war WW2 either. Dean

    I do like them Rodger! The flamethrowers minis, not the 200 followers...so congrats for them! The 200 followers, AND the flamethrowers!
    That's a great unit, and you did very very nice photos...
    Best regards,
    Phil.

    And the best is, that 30th of July 1915, Germans for the first time used the flamethrowers on the battlefield. Nice job Rodger, both figures, and followers!!!!

    Congratulations on the 200, a group I'm glad to be a part of. These are nicely painted figures and in the background is your stunning terrain. I remember when you posted these buildings. I'm still in awe of them.

    Ach! eine dumkopf vo ist die Lichter!!
    Great work but you must be ready for some more colourful figures to paint like for instance...'Samurai'...I have a couple of sprues put aside for you in readiness.

    Congratiulations on the 200 followers mate, when you get to 300 we can call your blog 'The 300'

    Very interesting, this one slipped my radar - I had always thought the flame thrower was a WWII invention, not a WWI one! Looks good, but I pity the poor Tommy!
